'Palestine' is the name given by the ancient Greeks to the Levant after they met the Philistines living along much of the coast and thought that the Philistines occupied the entire land. The Greeks, coming from across the Mediterranean Sea, were unaware that a different people, the Hebrews, occupied the mountainous interior. The Hebrew people gave the area their own names, particularly the inland areas they themselves occupied, Judah and Israel. And they called the coastal plains and foothills actually occupied by the Philistines, simply the land of the Philistines or Philistia. The coastal areas to the north belonged to the Canaanites.
