Roman Palestine was a period in the history of Palestine characterised by Roman rule in the Palestine region.
Historians typically trace the period from the Hasmonean civil war in 63 BCE up until the end of the Byzantine rule with the Muslim conquest of the Levant in the 7th century.[1][2][3]
The period can be subdivided into early and late phases, transitioning at either the First Jewish–Roman War c. 70 CE or the Bar Kokhba Revolt c. 135 CE.[2][3] (Christian Era)
Palestine had a series of administrative changes, started as Roman client states under dynasties of Judean Hasmonean and Herodian before geting annexed to the Roman Empire, then incorporated a Roman province of Judaea, along with the Nabatean Kingdom in surrounding areas.
Roman Palestine after 135 CE was re-grouped into a Roman province of Syria Palaestina,[1] and it existed as the administrative unit. Then in 390 CE, when they expanded and subdivided into Palaestina Prima, Palaestina Secunda and Palaestina Salutaris - the last was when parts of the province of Arabia Petraea, (named: the annexed Nabatean Kingdom - under the administration of the Diocese of the East.[1] These were "three Palestines" and continued being administered together until the Muslim conquest of the Levant in the late 600's.[1]
