The term is most certainly related to the Greek word &amp;quot;Palaistine&amp;quot; which can be traced to 5th century BC. But it is not clear what region (&amp;quot;land of the Peleset&amp;quot;) or what people the term referred to. It encompassed the Philistines&amp;#x27; five city states - Philistia - in southern Palestine (this comes from the Bible, I think it is unknown how many Philistine city states existed), but may also have encompassed a region larger than that. Since Palaistine referred to most of Palestine one can speculate that Peleset&amp;#x2F;Pilistu also did.&lt;p&gt;Another theory is that Palestine came to be known as Palaistine after the Philistines via &amp;quot;pars pro toto&amp;quot;, which means that a part becomes the name of the whole. One example is Russia, named after the Rus people who inhabited merely a small fraction of modern-day Russia. In other words, the Philistines may have been the dominant people in Palestine and the Greeks may have referred to the whole region as Palaistine, just as many people (sloppily) refer to the United Kingdom as &amp;quot;England&amp;quot;. Numismatic evidence shows that the Philistine cities were large trading centers and minted coins earlier and in larger quantities than in other Palestinian cities.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The sea people: Alexander the Great trod in the footsteps of forgotten Greeks</title><url>https://nemets.substack.com/p/the-sea-people</url></story>
