Philistine

Etymology

Uncertain. R. D. Barnett speculated the Philistine term might be Indo-European and related to Hittite (šarawanaš) / (tarawanaš)[1] or Ancient Greek τῠ́ραννος (túrannos), itself probably a loan from Asia Minor (see entry).[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Compare Hebrew סֶרֶן (séren), Classical Syriac ܛܘܪܢܐ (ṭurrān, tyrannical act).
