Um, I maybe can offer a little help...or I may be completely wrong. Judea (also spelled Judaea) is a region of Israel & Palestine, on the West Bank. THis region dates back to Biblical times. I read the name came from the Greek noun Ioudaia, which came from the Aramaic word Iehudai. I don't know what either of those mean, but at times Judea was refered to as Yehuda, and the name Yehudah is a Jewish form of Judah. Click on the name Judah for its history. My guess is Judea has a history similar to Judah.
