The meaning of Michtam in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)
writing; i.e., a poem or song found in the titles of Psalms 16; 5660-60. Some translate the word "golden", i.e., precious. It is rendered in the LXX. by a word meaning "tablet inscription" or a "stelograph." The root of the word means to stamp or grave, and hence it is regarded as denoting a composition so precious as to be worthy to be engraven on a durable tablet for preservation; or, as others render, "a psalm precious as stamped gold," from the word kethem , "fine or stamped gold."
