Check out Herodotus, Book 3, Thalia. Palestine existed 500 years before Christ.

Israel existed too. What's your point? Ancient Israel and ancient Palestine (Pilishtia) were two neighboring countries. I'd be very satisfied with a Palestinian state within the boundaries of ancient Palestine, and an Israeli state within the boundaries of ancient Israel.

Its the answer for those Isreali firsters who repeate and repeat that there never was a Palestine before 1967.

Exactly what were the borders of ancient Israel and for how long?

Bingo - great answer to the befuddled one.
