Additional information

Caesarea Paneas — later Caesarea Philippi — was founded by Philip the Tetrarch, son of Herod the Great, who received the northeastern territories of his father's divided kingdom after Herod's death in 4 BCE. The regnal year ΙϚ (year 16) in the field dates this piece to 12–13 CE by Philip's era, making it a product of a reign that ran unusually long and peacefully for the region. Philip died without an heir in 34 CE, at which point Tiberius absorbed his tetrarchy directly into the Roman province of Syria.
