The name "Judaea" was derived from the Kingdom of Judah of the 6th century B.C. After the deposition of Herod Archelaus in 6 A.D., Judea came under direct Roman rule. Roman governors began to tax the population and had authority to punish by execution. Unrest was endemic in Judaea under Roman rule. The First Jewish Revolt, 66 - 70 A.D., ended with the destruction of Second Temple of Jerusalem and the Fiscus Judaicus. The Bar Kokhba Revolt, 132 - 135 A.D., ended with the Jewish diaspora. Hadrian renamed the province Syria Palaestina, and renamed Jerusalem, Aelia Capitolina.
