Etymology
Megiddo was known in the Akkadian language used in Assyria as Magiddu, Magaddu. In Egyptian, it was Maketi, Makitu, and Makedo. In the Canaanite-influenced Akkadian used in the Amarna letters, it was known as Magidda and Makida. It was Koinē Greek: Μαγεδών/Μαγεδδώ, Magedón/Mageddó in the Septuagint;[a] Latin: Mageddo in the Vulgate.[3]
The Book of Revelation describes an apocalyptic battle at Armageddon in Revelation 16:16: Koinē Greek: Ἁρμαγεδών, romanized: Harmagedōn, a transliteration of the Hebrew Har Megiddo "Mount Megiddo".[4] From this surreal appearance in a well-known eschatological text, the term "Armageddon" has come to signify any world-ending catastrophe.[b]
