Demographics of Palestine : ウィキペディア英語版
Demographic history of Palestine

The Demographic history of Palestine refers to the study of the historical population of the region of Palestine, defined as the modern State of Israel, Jordan and the Palestinian territories, or the territory defined by the borders of the 1923-48 Mandatory Palestine.
==Ancient period demographics==

Figures vary considerably as to the demographics of Palestine in the Christian era.〔'Jack Pastor,(''Land and Economy in Ancient Palestine,'' ) Routledge, 2013 p.6.〕 Population growth has been estimated, from 1,000 BCE to 750 BCE to average 0.4 per annum.〔 After the Bar Kokhba revolt the make-up of the population of Palestine is debated due to data being sparse in the historical record.
Modern estimates vary: Applebaum argues that in the Herodian kingdom, there were 1.5 million Jews, a figure Ben David says covers the numbers in Judea alone. Salo Wittmayer Baron estimated the population at 2.3 million at the time of Roman emperor Claudius. According to Israeli archeologist Magen Broshi, west of the Jordan River the population did not exceed 1 million:〔
"... the population of Palestine in antiquity did not exceed a million persons. It can also be shown, moreover, that this was more or less the size of the population in the peak period – the late Byzantine period, around AD 600"〔Magen Broshi, The Population of Western Palestine in the Roman-Byzantine Period, ''Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research'', No. 236, p.7, 1979.〕

Broschi's calculations are based on the grain-producing capacity of Palestine and its role in the indigenous diet, assuming an average annual pro capita consumption of 200 kg.(with a maximum of 250 kg., which would work out to the limit of a sustainable population of 1,250,000 people. The proportion of Jews to gentiles is unknown.〔
Similarly, a study by Yigal Shiloh of The Hebrew University suggests that the population of Palestine in the Iron Age could have never exceeded a million. He writes: "... the population of the country in the Roman-Byzantine period greatly exceeded that in the Iron Age...If we accept Broshi's population estimates, which appear to be confirmed by the results of recent research, it follows that the estimates for the population during the Iron Age must be set at a lower figure."〔Yigal Shiloh, The Population of Iron Age Palestine in the Light of a Sample Analysis of Urban Plans, Areas, and Population Density, ''Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research'', No. 239, p.33, 1980.〕
After the Babylonian conquest in 597 BC the Samaritans emerged as a people in Palestine, and the Phoenicians expanded along the coastal plain. With the successive waves of return of the Israelites from exile in the mid-5th century BC, by the time of Ezra (~458 BC) Palestine consisted of the returnees, the people of Samaria and other Jews who had remained behind, the related Samaritans,〔Finkelstein and Silberman (2001) The Bible Unearthed. Free Press, New York, 2001, p. 107, ISBN 0-684-86912-8〕 and "the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians and the Amorites. For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons, so that the holy seed have mingled".〔Holy Bible. King James Version. Book of Ezra, chapter 9, verses 1 and 2〕 From that point on there is no further mention in the Bible of living Canaanites. At the start of the Hellenic period, Jews therefore dominated the population of Palestine, with an ancestry prime of which was Canaanite, plus lesser contributions of Aegean (Philistines), Egyptian, and Syrian and Mesopotamian (Amorites) ancestry.
