Peace from Othniel (jul 2, 1358 BC – jul 1, 1318 BC)

Description:

Possibly the "Udhi" or "Tuhi" from Amarna letters.

Name in hebrew is Otni = Lion? / Strength? + El = God aka Lion of God or God is my strength. "Ud-hi/"Ut-hi" could be related to this

roughly 40 years between estimated date of killing Artashumara and estimated Moabite oppression.


There is also a very strenuous possibility that he is identical the the individual known as Labaya of shechem (who's name likely translates to "Lion of Yah") But this is a stretch.
