Years: 139BCE - 139BCE
Scipio Aemilianus Africanus Minor, the Roman hero of the Third Punic War, is posted as an ambassador to eastern kingdoms in 140—139 BCE.
Meanwhile, Rome’s praetor (civil administrator) in 139 charges the Jews of the city with attempting to contaminate Roman morals with their religion, presumably an allusion to proselytism.
