Caesar Augustus, born as Gaius Octavius, ruled Rome from January 16, 27 BC to August 19, 14 AD. He is known for being the founder of the Roman Principate, which is the first phase of the Roman Empire, and is widely considered as one of the greatest leaders in human history.

Marcus Ambibulus was a Roman knight, and governor of Judaea from 6 AD to circa 12 AD.

Prutah is a Hebrew term, possible derived from Aramaic, referring to a small denomination coin. The prutah was an ancient copper coin of the Second Temple period (approximately 516 BCE to 70 AD) of Israel with low value. In ancient times, a loaf of bread was worth about 10 prutot (plural of prutah). One prutah was also worth two lepta, which was the smallest denomination minted by the kings of the Hasmonean and Herodian dynasties.
