 the sea-coast, Gaza, and Joppa, and Dor, and Strato's Tower ; this

 left free and joined to the prefecture."

 which they had taken, and made them subject to him that had 

 been appointed Roman praetor there, and shut them in to their 

 own proper bounds. He also rebuilt Gadara, that had been 

 demolished by the Jews, to gratify a certain Demetrius of Gadara, 

 who was one of his own freedmen. He also freed from their 

 domination cities that lay in the interior, such as they had not 

 previously demolished. Hippos, and Scythopolis, besides Pella, 

 and Samaria, and Jamnia, and Marissa, as well as Azotus and 

 Arethusa; in like manner dealt he with the maritime cities, Gaza, 

 Joppa, Dor, and that which was anciently called Strato's Tower, 

 but was afterward rebuilt with most magnificent edifices by Herod 

 the King, and its name changed to Caesarea. All of these he 

 delivered over to their true citizens and put them under the prov- 

 ince of Syria. And he committed this province, together with 

 Judea and the countries as far as Egypt and the Euphrates to 

 Scaurus to govern . . . ."
