Mar 23, 2022 at 18:05 comment added LаngLаngС @Harel13 The chieftain-toponym-connex is certainly possible, but I'd struggle to prove that with anything remotely approaching provable. A more interesting (to me) hypothesis however is that 'Moabitis and Arielis' might be used as a hendiadyoin here (esp in contrast to your "but Moab is already mentioned on the list").
Mar 23, 2022 at 17:36 comment added Harel13 Thank you! Your last note makes sense in light of the way Epiphanius wrote about it. Now I wonder whether the reason the locals referred to Ares as Ariel has anything to do with the biblical meaning of Moabite chieftains.
