| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Archelaus ruled Cappadocia as a client king under Rome for over fifty years — longer than any other Cappadocian monarch — before Tiberius summoned him to Rome in 17 AD on charges of maiestas and he died there, possibly by his own hand, before any verdict was reached. The kingdom was immediately annexed as a Roman province. Coins from years 4–5 of his reign fall early in that long tenure, struck at Caesarea Mazaca, the capital he renamed after Augustus.
