==Etymology==

The name 'Akka is recorded in Egyptian sources from about 2000 BC, with three signs (the initial guttural, "k" and "a"; followed by the sign for "foreign city").〔E. A. Wallis Budge, An Egyptian Hieroglyphic Dictionary. London: John Murray, 1920.〕
In the Amarna letters, written in Akkadian, the letter "H" is used to signify the guttural letters alef-heh-chet-ayin, and therefore it was possible to write the name of the city as if it were "Haca" or "Aca". Had the name not been preserved, we would not have been able to identify it with certainty with the name that appears in cuneiforms. In Assyrian the name has been preserved with the spelling "AKK".〔
The city was renamed Ptolemais during the Hellenistic and later Roman-Byzantine period, but was restored to Akka following the Muslim conquest.
