Notes
- This ethnic is attested only here.
Perhaps [NF] an error for Kenite. The Kenites or Kinaioi (= smiths) are usually presumed to be the same as the Midianites (see web address 1), e.g. at Judges 1:16.
Alternatively [DW] a variant of Kananites. See Strabo 14.5.14: Athenodorus son of Sandon is 'also called Kananites, after some village [sc. near Tarsus]'.
Or [CR] a variant of Kaininetes, as in Plutarch, Romulus 16.2 and 16.7.
