Marcus  Ambivulus  [governed 9-12 CE]

Roman cavalry officer who succeeded Coponius as 2nd prefect of Judea & Samaria. His tenure was apparently uneventful, since Josephus did not report anything about his administration other than the death of Herod's sister Salome by natural causes.

Reference: Josephus, Antiquities 18.31.
