# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Herod Archelaus was born in 23 BC, son of Herod the Great and Malthace the Samaritan, brother to Herod Antipas and half-brother to Herod II. When Herod the Great died in 4 BC, Archelaus took power as ethnarch over half his father's domain: Judea, Samaria, Idumea, and the coastal cities of Caesarea and Jaffa. His rule formed part of the Herodian tetrarchy, the fractured arrangement that replaced his father's unified kingdom. By AD 6, the Roman emperor Augustus had seen enough and removed him from power, folding his territory into the new Judaea province under direct Roman administration during the Census of Quirinius. He lived another dozen years in obscurity, dying around AD 18.
