Bodashtart
The first known Bodashtart inscription currently in the Louvre museum.
- ... that king Bodashtart of Sidon left more than thirty dedicatory inscriptions (sample pictured) at the Temple of Eshmun site? Source: Elayi, Josette (2006).

5x expanded by Elias Ziade (talk). Self-nominated at 14:32, 16 November 2020 (UTC).
Recent expansion that's long enough to satisfy criteria. Hook source checks out. Earwig's Copyvio Detector shows a clean slate. QPQ done. There is a referencing error in big red lettering at the bottom of the page that you might want to attend to. Whilst you are at it, I suggest that you have a look at the shortened footnote template as that would be much better than the handcrafted refs that you've got (not a DYK show stopper; just a suggestion). Given that this is a bio, I have to say that I don't get much of an impression who this person was, and what the family relations are. When I read the Russian version of the article via Google Translate, I get a much clearer picture. That said, your article implies that Eshmunazar II was Bodashtart's father (or father-in-law), whilst the Russian bio says that he was his cousin. Could you please look into that? The Russian source #4 is in English and seems to deal with the matter; you've listed that as Josette Elayi's 2006 work. Schwede66 22:46, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
