Bodashtart (also transliterated Bodʿaštort, meaning "from the hand of Astarte"; ) was a Phoenician ruler, who reigned as King of Sidon ( – ), the grandson of King Eshmunazar I, and a vassal of the Achaemenid Empire. He succeeded his cousin Eshmunazar II to the throne of Sidon, and scholars believe that he was succeeded by his son and proclaimed heir Yatonmilk.
