I invite you to prove me wrong.
What are you talking about ya nutjob. You told me earlier that the Romans invented the name Palestine 2000 years ago.but there is no mention of Palestine in their texts except for in modern translations. Therefore 'Palestine' is a modern construct.
Then show it - btw your wrong its Syria/Palestina not Palestine and there is a reason for that also...Wow. Bug moans about Palestine being mentioned in his thread then goes and likes a comment that mentions Palestine.
The Romans never "invented the name Palestine". That's what bug claimed. Bug was wrong.
As to your comment. There's mention of Syria/Palestine long before Hadrian.
O Dear. Do you correct people when they say Italy instead of Italia? Would you correct someone who says Scotland instead of Scozia?. Are we speaking English here?Then show it - btw your wrong its Syria/Palestina not Palestine and there is a reason for that also...
You prove it show the evidence since you got the answers come on lets see it.Bug asks people to stop talking about Palestine and yet again he likes a comment that mentions Palestine. Take from that what you will.

Greek historians were mentioning Palestine (Palaistine) at least 500 years before Christ. So correct me if I'm wrong but 500 years BC was long before Hadrian was born?
I told you, Greek historians from at least 500 BC.You prove it show the evidence since you got the answers come on lets see it.
which ones? How about that some quotes etc how about that.I told you, Greek historians from at least 500 BC.
"passing over from thence, they now inhabit the sea‑coast of Syria; that part of Syria and as much of it as reaches to Egypt, is all called Palestine".
I gave you a quote and I'm deliberately not giving you a source because i want you to go check it out for yourself.which ones? How about that some quotes etc how about that.
Pound sand then...its probably made up sources and thats why you don't want to source it here.I gave you a quote and I'm deliberately not giving you a source because i want you to go check it out for yourself.
EDIT: I'll give you another quote from a different writer,
"Again if, as is fabled, there is a lake in Palestine, such that if you bind a man or beast and throw it in it floats and does not sink, this would bear out what we have said. They say that this lake is so bitter and salt that no fish live in it and that if you soak clothes in it and shake them it cleans them".
lol. I don't recall you or bug producing any sources to prove "Hadrian invented Palestine". We know you can't provide sources because it is a lie to say that "Hadrian invented Palestine". I'm not saying you and bug deliberately lied. However it does show that neither of you have done any research. Which makes me wonder why you would make such a poorly researched claim.Pound sand then...its probably made up sources and thats why you don't want to source it here.
That's a great wee story but it does nothing to prove "Hadrian invented the word Palestine"Rome’s relationship with the Jewish population of the Roman Empire had been strained since the destruction of Jerusalem in the 1st century CE, and Hadrian’s focus on Romanizing the province of Judaea greatly exacerbated tensions. He aimed to transform Jerusalem into a Roman metropolis, and in 132 he banned the practice of castration and circumcision. A short time later, many Jews in Judaea revolted under the charismatic Bar Kokhba, a man who had been recognized by some as the messiah.
Bar Kokhba’s revolt was successful at the start. He quickly occupied the Judaean countryside and forced the provincial governor to request reinforcements. Hadrian transferred his most talented generals to the region. Among them was Julius Severus, who took command of the imperial forces. He deployed three legions and at least 17 auxiliary units; one of these legions was likely obliterated by insurgents. Taking note of Bar Kokhba’s reluctance to engage him in open combat, Severus adopted a scorched-earth strategy, leveling hundreds of villages and outposts. The rebels often hid in underground tunnels, so he starved and burned them out from above. By 135 the revolt had been extinguished and Bar Kokhba killed, but only after enormous losses on both sides.
Hadrian resolved to stamp the Jews and their religion out of existence. He sold all Jewish prisoners into slavery, forbade the teaching of the Torah, renamed the province Syria Palaestina, and changed Jerusalem’s name to Aelia Capitolina (although scholars are divided over whether to place Jerusalem’s name change before or after the revolt). Synagogues were replaced with Roman temples. More painful was his edict barring Jews from so much as looking upon their fallen capital. Many prominent rabbis violated this edict and martyred themselves in the process. Hadrian’s efforts had a lasting effect: the Jews would not regain control of their ancestral homeland for over 1,800 years.
