Bar Kochba
The Bar Kochba revolt is sparked in the year 132 A.D with A visit to Judea by A bearded Roman emperor known as Hedrian who decides to build two Pagan temples in Jerusalem, one to honor Aphrodie and anothe on temple mount to honor Zeus. This gets the Jews going. Jerusalem at the time stands in ruins and the Jews are not allowed into the city. A Charismatic, mysterious leader rallies the Jews who rebel. Hedian sends 10 Roman legion to Judea, A third of the mighty Roman army at the time and manages to crush the revolt three years later in 135 A.D
Bar Kochba spites Rome and mints Jewish independence coins. On one mint The Temple clearly stands in Jerusalem. True to strict Jewish law & tradition the coins do not offer any facial features, Only clear Judaic symbols. Bar Kochba's heritage is one of heroic resistance to foreign rule and total objection and contempt to Pagan worship.
