Wow, this is wrong. The region's name was Salem. There was no city on that hill until the Israelites built one. That's why they called it Jerusalem; because it was founded in Salem. Its name means "foundation of peace," but it's a direct reference to a region, not a city, over which Melchizedek was king.
