ABSTRACT
Herod is remembered for his great flair for building. Early dwellings on Masada demonstrated the Hasmonean tradition that he followed in the first phase of building. In the subsequent phases, Herod was involved in the design, planning, and carrying through of the projects. Herod brought innovation and new ideas to creating structures that were based on symmetry, had control over nature, and were aesthetically pleasing, practical, and luxurious. Masada showcased his evolving style.
