Ancient Palestinians are the philistines mentioned in the book of Genesis. They were invaders from the Greek Islands around 2000 BCE, were mainly merchant sailors and as related in the book of Genesis lived and farmed on the southern coastal plain of the land of Israel. There is no connection between Arabs who invented a link and called themselves Palestinians about 1964, and the ancient philistines.
