-'''Ventidius Cumanus''' was the Roman governor of Judea, from 48 CE to 52 CE, under Emperor [[Claudius]].
-==Overview==
-In 48 CE, Ventidius Cumanus succeeded [[:Category:Tiberius Alexander (subject)|Tiberius Alexander]] as Roman Procurator of Judea, while [[Ananias ben Nebedeus]] was confirmed the High Priest. Cumamus proved to be less effective than his predecessor. His tenure was marked by a series of crisis, violence and unwise decisions, so much so that at the end Cumanius was removed from office and sent into exile. In 52 CE [[:Category:Felix (subject)|Marcus Antonius Felix]] replaced Cumanius.
