Julius Agrippa^[1] was a Syrian nobleman from the Royal family of Emesa who lived in the 2nd century.

Agrippa was an Emesene nobleman who was a direct descendant of the Emesene Roman Priest-Client King Sohaemus of Emesa, also known as Gaius Julius Sohaemus.^[2] He was the brother of a Julius and the paternal uncle of Julius Bassianus,^[3] the Emesene High Priest of El-Gebal. El-Gebal is the Aramaic name for the Syrian Sun God.^[4]

Agrippa served as a Primipilaris, a former leading Centurion.^[5] Agrippa was a man of some wealth as he owned an estate.^[6] When Agrippa died perhaps sometime before the late 180s, his name appears to be registered at the time of the Roman Jurist Quintus Cervidius Scaevola.^[7]

Agrippa's estate was left to the Roman Empress Julia Domna,^[8] as he was the paternal great-uncle to Domna and her elder sister Julia Maesa.^[9] Agrippa is not to be confused with the powerful Lucius Julius Gainius Fabius Agrippa of Apamea.^[10]
