Mariamne III was a daughter ofAristobulus IV andBerenice.
She had three brothers,Herod of Chalcis,Herod Agrippa I, andAristobulus V, and one sister,Herodias.
Some time after the death of her father in 7 BCE, Mariamne III was betrothed toAntipater II, her uncle and the eldest son ofHerod the Great. After Antipater's execution in 4 BCE, an anonymous Mariamne was the first wife of another uncle,Herod Archelaus, ethnarch ofJudea but nothing permits to know if she was Mariamne III.[1]
