[edit] Chronology

The article reads, "But Turbo was himself executed upon special orders sent from Rome, and the lives of the brothers were saved." The article seems to place this around 117/8 CE. Indeed, the war lasted, according to the 1st article sentence, from 115 - 117 CE. However, the article on Turbo says he lived to at least 122 CE and was a good friend of both Trajan and Hadrian, making it unlikely they would send special orders to execute him. This does not add up.

[edit] Quintus Lucius Quietus

Is there a source for the name form "Quintus Lucius Quietus"? I found only evidence for "Lusius" or "Lucius Quietus". WolfgangRieger 21:26, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Changed "Palestine" to Iudaea, as the Province of Iudaea was not renamed Syria Palaestina until after 135 ad. User:Josephconklin 24 February 2006

[edit] Casualties

As per Humus_sapiens, I posted the casualty info that I could find. Anyone else that can add to either Roman, Greek, or Jewish losses, please update and post scholarly reference. Thank you. --Jtpaladin 20:33, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

The numbers you have posted are incredibly unrealistic. If those are the only ones you could find then I would suggest either not including them or including qualifiers and adding ambiguity about their accuracy.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:39, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
