Archeologists said on July 10, 2016 they discovered the first Philistine cemetery in Israel's southern Mediterranean shore, hoping the discovery would solve the longstanding biblical question: Where did the ancient Philistine come from? The cemetery, dated to the 11th-8th centuries BC, was found in the coastal city of Ashkelon in southern Israel, once one of five city states of the Philistine in a region which is nowadays the Palestinian Gaza Strip and southern Israel.
