Antigonus II Mattathias (‹See Tfd›Greek: Ἀντίγονος Antígonos; Hebrew: מַתִּתְיָהוּ, Mattīṯyāhū), also known as Antigonus the Hasmonean (died 37 BCE) was the last Hasmonean king of Judea. He was the son of King Aristobulus II of Judea. In 37 BCE Herod handed him over to the Romans for execution, after Antigonus's three-year reign during which he led the Jews' fierce struggle for independence against the Romans.
