The Zuz coins of the Bar Kokhba revolt were struck across the three desperate years of the rebellion’s duration, from its outbreak in 132 AD through its brutal suppression by the emperor Hadrian in 135 AD, a period of catastrophic violence that ended with the destruction of Jewish communities across Judea, the renaming of Jerusalem as Aelia Capitolina, and the beginning of the long Jewish diaspora that would define the next two millennia of Jewish history.
