    Dictionary Summary: One of the three sons of Gomer ([Gen. 10:3](/gen#Gen.10.3)), and founder of one of the tribes of the Japhetic race. They are mentioned in connection with Minni and Ararat, and hence their original seat must have been in Armenia ([Jer. 51:27](/jer#Jer.51.27)), probably near the Black Sea, which, from their founder, was first called Axenus, and afterwards the Euxine. 2
