Encyclopedic overview
Salome Alexandra, also Shlomtzion, Shelamzion (Ancient Greek: Σαλώμη Ἀλεξάνδρα; Hebrew: שְׁלוֹמְצִיּוֹן, Šəlōmṣīyyōn, "peace of Zion"; 141–67 BC), was a regnant queen of Hasmonean Judea, one of only three women in Jewish historical tradition to rule over the country, the other two being Deborah and Athaliah. The wife of Alexander Jannaeus, she was also the last ruler of Judea to die as the sovereign of an independent kingdom. Her nine-year reign has been described as a "golden age" of Hasmonean history. Many suspect that she had previously been married to Alexander Janneaus's older brother, Aristobolus I, but this is most likely a misidentification.
