Tétrarque

In the Roman empire, a tétrarque (of the Greek will tetra four, and archon chief) was with the clean direction the leader of one of the four parts of a kingdom (in the case of the Palestine) or of the Empire. This term will be employed later without there being really a rigorous division of a territory in four parts.
