The Josippon is a history of the Jewish people, originally composed in Hebrew by a Jew from Italy around the middle of the tenth century. It begins with a history of Italy, then continues with the history of the Jews from the Second Temple to Masada. The sources for this history are primarily Flavius Josephus, but the author also draws on Hegesippus and the Book of the Maccabees.
