The Philistine Ekron inscription, discovered during the 1996 archaeological campaign at Tell Miqne (Israel), is written in a Canaanite dialect, but it mentions a feminine theonym, Ptgyh, unknown until now. Its explanation has been attempted through comparison with the Indoeuropean languages. In our opinion, it may be a name composed of two elements: PT, related to the root *POT / POS 'Lord', and GYH 'earth'. Thus, this theonym may be understood as 'the Earth Lady'.
