The Hasmonean dynasty[2] (/ˌ

Roman. Ḥashmona\'im) was the ruling dynasty of Judea and surrounding regionsduring classical antiquity. Between c. 140 and c. 116 BCE the dynasty ruledsemi-autonomously from the Seleucids in the region of Judea. From 110 BCE, withthe Seleucid empire disintegrating, the dynasty became fully independent,expanded into the neighbouring regions of Samaria, Galilee, Iturea, Perea, andIdumea, and took the title \"basileus\". Some modern scholars refer tothis period as an independent kingdom of Israel.[3]

In 63 BCE, the kingdom was conqueredby the Roman Republic, broken up and set up as a Roman client state. Thedynasty had survived for 103 years before yielding to the Herodian dynasty in37 BCE. Even then, Herod the Great tried to bolster the legitimacy of his reignby marrying a Hasmonean princess, Mariamne, and planning to drown the last maleHasmonean heir at his Jericho palace.

The dynasty was established under theleadership of Simon Maccabaeus, two decades after his brother Judah theMaccabee( יהודה המכבי \"Y\'hudhahHaMakabi\")defeated theSeleucid army during the Maccabean Revolt. According to historical sources,including 1 Maccabees and 2 Maccabees and the first book of The Jewish War byJewish historian Flavius Josephus (AD 37–c. 100),[4] Antiochus IV moved toassert strict control over the Seleucid satrapy of Coele Syria and Phoenicia[5]after his successful invasion of Ptolemaic Egypt was turned back by theintervention of the Roman Republic.[6][7] He sacked Jerusalem and its Temple,suppressing Jewish and Samaritan religious and cultural observances,[5] andimposed Hellenistic practices. The ensuing revolt by the Jews (167 BCE) began aperiod of Jewish independence potentiated by the steady collapse of theSeleucid Empire under attacks from the rising powers of the Roman Republic andthe Parthian Empire.

However, the same power vacuum thatenabled the Jewish state to be recognized by the Roman Senate c. 139 BCE waslater exploited by the Romans themselves. Hyrcanus II and Aristobulus II,Simon\'s great-grandsons, became pawns in a proxy war between Julius Caesar andPompey the Great. The deaths of Pompey (48 BCE) and Caesar (44 BCE), and therelated Roman civil wars temporarily relaxed Rome\'s grip on Israel, allowing avery brief Hasmonean resurgence backed by the Parthian Empire. This shortindependence was rapidly crushed by the Romans under Mark Antony and Octavian.

The installation of Herod the Great(an Idumean) as king in 37 BCE made Israel a Roman client state and marked theend of the Hasmonean dynasty. In AD 6, Rome joined Judea proper, Samaria andIdumea (biblical Edom) into the Roman province of Iudaea. In AD 44, Romeinstalled the rule of a Roman procurator side by side with the rule of theHerodian kings (specifically Agrippa I 41–44 and Agrippa II 50–100).
