Annius Rufus

Last updated April 24, 2025

Annius Rufus succeeded Marcus Ambivulus as the 3rd Prefect of Judea in 12.

History

His tenure was apparently without incident since the only event that Josephus reports as occurring while he was in office is the death of Augustus in Rome in 14. He was succeeded by Valerius Gratus in 15.
