The Herodion we will nickname "he died by Yah"! - Herod was stricken by Yah.

"...Following the writings of Josephus, Hebrew University Professor
Ehud Netzer reported on May 8, 2007, that he discovered Herod's gravesite
atop of tunnels and water pools, at a flattened desert site, halfway
up the hill to Herodium, 12 kilometers (7.5 mi) south of Jerusalem -
the precise location given by Josephus..."

The location of Herod's tomb is documented by Roman historian Flavius
Josephus, he writes:
"...And the body was carried two hundred furlongs, to Herodium,
where he had given order to be buried..." (The Wars of the Jews
or History of the Destruction of Jerusalem. Book V. Chapter 33.1)
Flavius Josephus provides more clues about Herod's tomb which he calls
Herod's monuments:
"So they threw down all the hedges and walls which the inhabitants
had made about their gardens and groves of trees, and cut down all the
fruit trees that lay between them and the wall of the city, and filled
up all the hollow places and the chasms, and demolished the rocky precipices
with iron instruments; and thereby made all the place level from Scopus
to Herod's monuments, which adjoined to the pool called the Serpent's
Pool."
