Twenty years later--and eight months pregnant with her sixth child--Regilla died under mysterious circumstances, after a blow to the abdomen delivered by Herodes's freedman. Though Herodes was charged, he was acquitted. Pomeroy's investigation suggests that despite Herodes's erection of numerous monuments to his deceased wife, he was in fact guilty of the crime. 606 $aUxoricide$zGreece$zAthens$xHistory$vCase studies 606 $aWife abuse$zGreece$zAthens$xHistory$vCase studies 606 $aTrials (Murder)$zRome$xHistory$vCase studies 606 $aUpper class women$zGreece$zAthens$vBiography 606 $aUpper class women$zRome$vBiography 606 $aCivilization, Greco-Roman 615 0$aUxoricide$xHistory 615 0$aWife abuse$xHistory 615 0$aTrials (Murder)$xHistory 615 0$aUpper class women 615 0$aUpper class women 615 0$aCivilization, Greco-Roman. 676 $a364.152/3092 686 $aNH 8550$2rvk 700 $aPomeroy$b Sarah B$0186554 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778180203321 996 $aThe murder of Regilla$93671663 997 $aUNINA
