Why did Emperor Titus of the Roman Empire expel the Jews from Judea?

The Romans scattered the Jewish population as a punishment for the revolt in 70 CE. Recent excavations in Israel have found that may Jews were allowed to stay after the destruction of the temple by Titus. Coins and other artifacts attest to the fact that although they were an occupied country, some remained. Many more were exiled to prevent a similar rebellion from recurring.
Answer:
The Romans never expelled the Jews from Jerusalem only. Many Jewish communities continued existing in Judea (Palestine) throughout all of the centuries after that, though during most of that time they were a minority in the land. Those Jews who left the Galilee did so because of harsh conditions, not because of any decree of expulsion.
Just a little addenda: The question was asking about the emperor Titus expelling the Jews. However Titus was not emperor at the time of the 70 CA war, he was the general who conquered the city. His father Vespasian was emperor at the time. You are mixing the destruction of the temple with the scattering of the Jews. It was the emperor Hadrian that really, really came down hard on them.
