| Title: Asinius Pollio and Herod's Sons Secondary Title: CQ Volume: 35 Pages: 240-243 Type: Journal Article Year: 1985 Abstract: "Reply to D. Braund (cf. APh LIV N° 10929). The Pollio mentioned by Josephus (Ant. Iud. 15.343) at whose home Herod's sons stayed in 22 B.C. should be identified as C. Asinius Pollio, cos. 40 B.C.".
"Contrary to the opinion of D. Braund (see § 28-363), the Pollio at whose home in Rome Herod's sons Alexander and Aristobulus stayed in 22 B.C. was most likely Gaius Asinius Pollio, the famous consul of 40 B.C., who was a close friend of Julius Caesar and to whom Vergil dedicated his Fourth Eclogue". - D.J.H.
