Palestinians are primarily descended from a mix of ancient peoples who have lived in the region for millennia, including Canaanites, Philistines, and various other Semitic groups. Over the centuries, the area has seen numerous migrations and conquests, incorporating influences from Arab, Ottoman, and other cultures. As a result, contemporary Palestinians have a diverse heritage that reflects this complex history. They identify culturally and politically as a distinct people with a shared history and connection to the land of Palestine.
