Ashdod Ashdod, called azotus by the Greeks, was one of the five satraphies of the Philistines, and a place of great strength and consequence. It was situated near the Mediterranean, between Askelon and Jamnia, thirty-four miles north of Gaza, according to Diodorus Sciculus, and the Antonine and Jerusalem Itineraries. it is now called Shdood; and Dr. Richardson says they neither saw nor heard of any ruins there. `The site of the town is on the summit of a grassy hill; and, if we are to believe historians, was anciently as strong as it was beautiful.

of Dagon The name of this idol, Dagon, signifies a fish: and it is supposed to be the Atergatis of the Syrians, corruptly called Derceto by the Greeks, which had the upper part of a woman, and the lower part like a fish; as Lucian informs us: () `In Phoenicia I saw the image of Derceto; a strange sight truly! For she had the half of a woman, but from the thighs downward a fish's tail.' Diodorus, describing the same idol, as represented at Askelon, say, (), `It had the head of a woman, but all the rest of the body a fish's. Probably Horace alludes to this idol, in De Art. Poet. v.
