This theory had some currency among Roman authors,Simón, M. A. Consejería de Agricultura, Pesca y Medio Ambiente 2012 Junta de Andalucía, Seville Ten years conserving the Iberian lynx 8492807806 1950 Hispania, the name that the Romans gave to the peninsular, derives from the Phoenician i-spn-ya, where the prefix i would translate as “coast”, “island” or “land”, ya as “region” and spn[,] in Hebrew saphan, as “rabbits” (in reality, hyraxes). The Romans, therefore, gave Hispania the meaning of“land abundant in rabbits”, a use adopted by Cicero, Cesar, Pliny the Elder and, in particular, Catulo, who referred to Hispania as the cuniculus peninsula. and may explain why Hispania is depicted with rabbits on some Roman coins. But later scholars have sometimes doubted this interpretationMilton Azevedo Portuguese: A Linguistic Introduction 2005 0521805155 6. He calls the rabbit theory "a charming legend [...of] a Phoenician name, i-shepham-im or 'land of rabbits'". and proposed other possible Phoenician etyma, like phn *𐤀𐤉 𐤑𐤐𐤍 *ʔī ṣappūn island of the north.Michael Dietler Carolina López-Ruiz Colonial Encounters in Ancient Iberia 2009 0226148483 Cunchillos 2000:224 [...] offers a new interpretation of the etymology of the Roman name for the Iberian Peninsula, i.e., Hispania, as derived from the Northwest Semitic word meaning “island/coast” (&apos;i) and “north” (spn), therefore “northern island, island to the north,” or else “island of the metals (root spy/h, "beat metals", etc.). Both senses would fit well with geographic perceptions that the Iberian Peninsula might have triggered for the Phoenicians.

During this summer an extensive war broke out in Spain at the instigation of Indibilis, whose sole motive was his intense admiration for Scipio which made him think lightly of other commanders. The people looked upon him as the only general the Romans had left to them, all the others having been killed by Hannibal. la New Latin la Spain Q29 Declension Hispānia<1> Related terms la Hispānia Ulterior Hispānia Citerior Hispāniēnsis Hispānicus Hispānus Descendants 2 desc rup Ispania ast España ca Espanya it Spagna 1 oc Espanha fro Espaigne roa-opt Espanha osp Espanna ro Spania rm Spagna sc Ispagna scn Spagna grc Ἱσπανία 1 ca Hispània 1 zh 西班牙 1 1 ko 서반아 1 vi Tây Ban Nha 1 nl Spanje 1 eo Hispanio 1 et Hispaania 1 de Hispanien 1 he אסְפַּמְיָה 1 medieval io Hispania 1 ja イスパニア 1 nb Spania 1 nn Spania 1 ang Ispania 1 goh Spānia 1 pl Hiszpania 1 pt Hispânia 1 ru Испа́ния 1 cy Sbaen 1 References Swahili Alternative forms sw Uhispania Etymology sw :bor pt:Hespanha :der la:Hispānia + 1 Pronunciation sw Sw-ke-Hispania.flac Kenya Proper noun sw proper noun sw Spain Q29 Related terms sw Mhispania
