O cemitério de cães de Ashkelon é um cemitério na cidade de Ascalão, em Israel, onde possivelmente milhares de cães foram enterrados no quinto ao terceiro séculos a.C. A maioria dos cães eram filhotes; todos tinham semelhanças com o Cão-de-canaã moderno, talvez representando a população ancestral da qual a raça moderna descende. É o maior cemitério deste tipo conhecido no mundo antigo.

The majority of the dogs were puppies; all had similarities to the modern Canaan Dog, perhaps representing the ancestral population from which the modern breed is descended. It is the largest known cemetery of this kind in the ancient world.

It is the largest known cemetery of this kind in the ancient world. Dogs are thought to be connected to the worship of Astarte in Ashkelon. M. Heltzer notes evidence from Sicily of a possible cultic link between dogs and the Middle Eastern goddess Astarte, and Herodotus mentions that the oldest temple in Ashkelon was dedicated to Aphrodite, who the Greeks associated with Astarte.
