Salome with John the Baptist's head, by Charles Mellin (1597–1649). Salome (/ s ə ˈ l oʊ m i, ˈ s æ l ə m eɪ /; Hebrew: שְלוֹמִית, romanized: Shlomit, related to שָׁלוֹם, Shalom "peace"; Greek: Σαλώμη), [1] also known as Salome III, [2] [note 1] was a Jewish princess, the daughter of Herod II and princess Herodias.
Salome's third husband was Alexas I . [2] Berenice's children were Herodias, Herod Agrippa I, king of Judea, Herod of Chalcis and Aristobulus Minor, and Mariamne III (who may have been the first wife of her uncle, Herod Archelaus, ethnarch of Judea). Salome I played a major background role in the court intrigues that plagued the royal family.
Together with Salome, Herodias was a frequent subject in depictions of the Power of Women topos in the later Medieval and Renaissance periods. The most common moment shown including Herodias is the Feast of Herod, showing Salome presenting John's severed head on a platter as Herodias dines with her husband and others.

Salome, also known as Salome II, [1] was a Herodian princess, the daughter of Herod the Great (Herod I) and one of his lesser wives, Elpis, born in ~14 BCE. [2]She should not be confused with Salome, whose mother was Herodias, and who is alleged to have played a role in the death of John the Baptist.
Titian depicts the daughter of Herodias by her first husband Herod Philip. She was the wife successively of Philip the Tetrarch and Aristobulus, son of Herod of Chalcis. This Salome is the only one of the three who is mentioned in the New Testament, [1] and only in connection with the execution of John the Baptist.
She married her cousin Aristobulus [1] in order to reduce discord within her family caused by Herod's favoritism towards his wife Mariamne I.Her marriage was an attempt to unite the two main sides of her family previously split by marriage and alleviate the tension surrounding which side would be responsible to succeeding Herod.
