Now we argue again about movies Mr. Wordingham.
But actually its not movies. I've read some quasi-biblical accounts
in which it stated there that Herodias was also sister of the other
Herods (full sister of one, half-sister of another), hence her name.
In fact it was not the wife-snatching that was
being targeted by John the Baptist (among half-brothers). But the
actual incest between two real (full not half) siblings.
But I'll check on the net if someone echoes those accounts.
I have'nt actually.
