In 6CE, Archelaus was dismissed, yet the intro says he was appointed - but not to what post - in that year, implying he took on some important role in the Roman Province of Judea, which was not the case. I would strongly urge this be reviewed.
it is written... It was after midnight, and Archelaus suddenly ordered the entire army into the city to the Temple. Josephus records the death toll at 3000. Archelaus sent heralds around the city announcing the cancellation of Passover.
The writings of Josephus do not record the time [after midnight], or the speed of response [suddenly]. The death toll by horsemen only was 3000 suggesting the death toll was much greater than 3000. Please refer to [1]
Antiquities of the Jews Book XVII Ch.9, para 3
… he [Archelaus] sent out the whole army upon them, and sent the horsemen to prevent those that had their tents without the temple from assisting those that were within the temple, and to kill such as ran away from the footmen when they thought themselves out of danger; which horsemen slew three thousand men, while the rest went to the neighboring mountains.

I created the map currently featured on this page. Recently I have made a new map utilizing new colors and software.
Yet it has been taken down twice and I was told to discuss it. I would like any feedback in regards to errors I may have made or how I can furtyther improve my new map.
Thank you.
A map depicting the domain of Herod Archelaus as was given to him by Augustus after the death of King Herod the Great.
The article mentions the Biblical claim that Joseph planned to return from exile in Egypt after hearing that Herod Archelaus' father, Herod the Great, had died. However, it makes no attempt to address the obvious discrepancy that this occurred in 4 B.C.!

What is the disrepancy? The
Nativity of Jesus is usually placed between 6 BC and 4 BC. :
The date of birth for Jesus of Nazareth is not stated in the gospels or in any secular text, but a majority of scholars assume a date between 6 BC and 4 BC.[1]
