ANAMIM

Volume 1 · 69 words · 1797 Edition

the second son of Mizraim (Gen.x.13). Ananim, if we may credit the paraphraff Jonathan the son of Uzziel, peopled the Mareotic; or the Pentapolis of Cyrene, according to the paraphraff of Jerusalem. Bochart is of opinion that these Anamins were the people that dwelt in the parts adjacent to the temple of Jupiter Ammon, and in the Namanitis. Calmet thinks the Amanians and Garamantes to be descended from Ananim.
