The Philistine Origin and Identity: Textual and Archaeological Evidence

This MA thesis is to review and discuss the origin and identity of the Philistines based on textual and archaeological evidence. The rise of the Philistines was not a single or independent historical event during the transition from the Late Bronze Age to the early Iron Age in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Philistines could be one of the Sea Peoples that arrived in Canaan around the 12th century BCE, and they were a major cultural force in Canaan throughout the Iron Ages. The Philistines were not native to the area, and they had a foreign origin and complex identity. Archaeologically, their material culture shows a very strong style and influence of the Aegean and Cyprus. But based on the textual evidence and linguistic proof, their origin could be around the Aegean and Western Anatolia. Therefore, based on the combined textual and archaeological evidence, the Philistines were migrants with a mix of diversity showing various social strata and personal status, a wide variety of people and places, including but not limited to the Aegean, Anatolia, and Cyprus.
