Mitinti (Philistine: 𐤌𐤕𐤕[1] *Mītīt or *Matīt;[2] Akkadian: mi-ti-in-ti and me-ti-in-ti[3][4][5]) was the name of several Philistine kings in the 8th and 7th century BC:

  • Mitinti II, another king of Ashkelon, son of Sidqa, who apparently succeeded Rukibtu. He ruled Ashkelon during the reign of Ashurbanipal. A seal belonging to his servant, ‘Abd’eli’ab, was recovered in Ireland in the 19th century and is now housed in the British Museum.[1][6] How Mitinti II came to rule Ashkelon is somewhat unclear – the annals of Sennacherib state that he had deposed Sidqa as king of Ashkelon and replaced him with Rukibtu's son Šarru-lu-dari after Sidqa instigated a failed revolt against Assyria, however, Šarru-lu-dari was apparently relegated to the governor of Pelusium during the reign of Esarhaddon - how Sidqa's son was then able to claim the throne is unexplained.
  • Mitinti, king of Ashdod. He ruled during the reign of Sennacherib. His rule was apparently contemporaneous with that of Sidqa, as Sennacherib's annals report that he was among a retinue of kings that brought him an exuberant payment of tribute before Sidqa's rebellion.
