'''Athronges''' (late 1st century BCE) was a Jewish rebel and royal claimant, who led a rebellion in Judea against [[Herod Archelaus]] and the Romans, around 4 BCE.
 
==Overview==
 
According to Flavius Josephus, Athronges was a shepherd. He and his brothers were renowned for their bravery and strength. Athronges made an explicit messianic claim, proclaiming himself king. [[Herod Archelaus]] and the Romans had trouble subduing the revolt, which may have lasted two years.
