Milk-qart > Melk-karth / Milqartu
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Phoenician and Akkadian “milk-qart > melk-karth / milqartu,” meaning “king of the city.” Melqart was the tutelary god of the Phoenician city of Tyre. Melqart was often titled Ba’l Ṣūr, “Lord of Tyre,” and considered the Tyrian royal family’s ancestor. It was suggested by some writers that the Phoenician Melicertes son of Ino found in Greek mythology was, in origin, a reflection of Melqart. Amilcare Malagola (1840–1895) was a Cardinal of the Catholic Church and was archbishop of Fermo 1877–1895.
