3 The name is borne by an Aramaean king of Ya'di in northern Syria in the ninth century B. C. , and is written Ha-ia-ni in the annals of Shalmaneser III (cf. Keilinschnftliche Bibliothek, i, p. 170), and KTI in the inscription of Kalumu, the succeeding king of Ya'di (cf. , for inscription, references given in Burney, Judges, p. 174). 60 ISRAEL'S SETTLEMENT IN CANAAN and among other names of autonomous chieftains there occur one which seems to represent the Semitic 'Anath-el, and another (most i...nteresting to us in view of our present inquiry) which may be read as Jacob-el. 1 When eventually driven out of Egypt by Ahmosi I, we find the Hyksos making a stand in Sharuhen (i. E. No doubt the city of that name mentioned in Joshua xix. 6 as assigned to Simeon in southern Judah), where they are besieged by Ahmosi for three years, and finally defeated by him in northern Syria ; 2 and we have, therefore, good ground for the assumption that they were, in origin, the more or less civilized people of Amurru (to use the term applied by the Babylonians to the region stretching west- ward from the Euphrates, and including the whole Syrian littoral), and that their line of retreat lay, as was natural, into the land occupied by their kindred.
