Talk:Drusilla (daughter of Herod Agrippa)

DISCREPENCY PROBLEM
1. from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drusilla_(daughter_of_Agrippa_I) "Josephus states that they had a son named Marcus Antonius Agrippa and a daughter Antonia Clementiana. Their son perished together with his mother, Drusilla, in Mount Vesuvius in 79." [note 7: "Mentioned in Josephus, Jewish Antiquities, xx.7.2, and in a lost section of the work."] 2. from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Vesuvius "Along with Pliny the Elder, the only other noble casualties of the eruption to be known by name were Agrippa (a son of the Jewish princess Drusilla and the procurator Antonius Felix) and his wife." [note 29 "Mentioned in Josephus, Jewish Antiquities, xx.7.2, and in a lost section of the work."] 3. from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonius_Felix "Felix and the Judean Drusilla, had a son, Marcus Antonius Agrippa, who died along with his [whose?] wife in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius." [this one has no documentation]

So who was it that died? Agrippa and his mother, Agrippa and his wife, or was it possibly all three of them? Wawruckhemmett (talk) 20:36, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * well, it took awhile, but its been fixed! That little nugget was rewritten in by an IP, as their only input into wikipdia. The original text was lifted straight from the catholic encyclopedia, and it only says Marcus and his wife.(and was credited to Josephus) One specific source (an article about the marriages of Felix) states that the last record of Drusilla was her presence alongside her husband at a meeting with Paul.(as does our article). So its gone. Curdle (talk) 15:40, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
