Who are the Philistines?

The term "Philistine" in Irish society is often used metaphorically to describe individuals or groups perceived as uncultured, materialistic, or dismissive of intellectual and artistic pursuits, drawing from the biblical Philistines' reputation. In this context, it may refer to those prioritizing commercialism or practicality over cultural heritage.

Historically, the Philistines were a people of Aegean origin who settled in Canaan around the 12th century BCE, known for their conflicts with the Israelites.
