The taxes were being taken by Julius Caesars soldiers or tax collectors. back then he was the king of Rome and controlling this. his face was on the money/coins. It is mentioned in the book of Matthew that Jesus makes a point to his people. He asks them who's face is on the coin, his or Caesar's...so then they will be respectful and pay their taxes.

Matthew 22

18 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, "You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me?

19 Show me the coin used for paying the tax." They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them, "Whose image is this? And whose inscription?"

21 "Caesar's," they replied.

Then he said to them, "So give back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."
