Flavius Josephus brought before Titus, at the Siege of Jerusalem, 70. Artist: Unknown

Flavius Josephus brought before Titus, at the Siege of Jerusalem, 70. Flavius Josephus (c37-c100), Jewish historian and soldier, is brought before Titus (39-81), eldest son of the Emperor Vespasian and commander of Roman forces in Judea during the Jewish revolt against Roman rule which began in 66. The Romans destroyed the city and looted the Temple. Flavius Josephus' History of the Jewish War (79) is the principal historical source on the revolt, which ended when the Romans captured the Jews' last stronghold at Masada in 73. Titus became Emperor in 79 and his exploits in Jerusalem are commemorated on the Arch of Titus, a triumphal arch built at the entrance to the Forum in Rome shortly after his death.
