guy Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 (edited) Between AD 350-353, Rome faced instability and rebellion. In pursuit of greater autonomy and in response to growing Christian intolerance, the Jews in Israel rebelled against Roman rule during this period of Roman weakness. This uprising, known as the Gallus Revolt, was directed against Constantius Gallus, the brother-in-law of Emperor Constantius II. The rebellion was ultimately suppressed by General Ursicinus, acting on behalf of Gallus. A hoard of coins dating back to the Gallus Revolt in AD 351-352 has been discovered in Lod, Israel. https://www.timesofisrael.com/ancient-lod-coin-hoard-reveals-details-of-little-known-4th-century-jewish-uprising/amp/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_revolt_against_Constantius_Gallus Edited June 21 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
