Oddly, Herod Antipas, Philip and Archelaus were called Tetrachs since Herod the Great's kingdom was divided among them. With later additions by Claudius Herod Agrippa's kingdom was soon the same size as Herod the Great's had been. When Herod Agrippa I died in 44 his son was too young to ascend the throne and the Romans were forced to resort to the procurator expedient...and the shit hit the fan.
I was under the impression that he was a mere Enthrarch.
