Kittim Article STEPBible TIPNR

Kittim was a son of Javan and grandson of Japheth, son of Noah (Gen 10:4; 1Ch 1:7). The Kittim are listed among the descendants of Japheth who spread out into their lands after the flood, each with their own language, clan, and nation (Gen 10:5). The Kittim likely settled in the area of Cyprus, as Kittim is an early name for this island. They were probably a seafaring People from Japheth.
