Giva' Parashim?[edit]

Giva' Parashim does indeed mean 'Hill/Geba of the Horsemen' in Hebrew (see here and here), but Josephus didn't write in Hebrew, but in Greek, so where does the Hebrew name come from ? If it's "only" how Israeli archaeologists call, by retro-translation of J.'s Greek name, it becomes of little use, i.e. only for when they publish in English, but use the transliterated Hebrew, like in the source used at Bar Kokhba hiding complexes: List of sites: Galilee (Shivtiel, Yinon. et al. (2022). "A Hiding Complex from the Period of the Bar Kokhba Revolt at the Ancient Settlement of Huqoq"). Arminden (talk) 21:03, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect it doesn't come from anywhere, but someone just added what it is called now in Hebrew. Zerotalk 08:10, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
