Raamah's descendents

[edit]

This article contains the following weird claim, "We know from the inscriptions of ancient Sheba that Raamah's descendants settled near to the land of Havilah to the east of Ophir." There's absolutely no way this uncited claim matches the understanding of modern historians. Historians don't think the names mentioned in Genesis 10 represent the names of actual historical individuals, but rather that they are ethnic or place names. And I would bet good money there's no "inscriptions of ancient Sheba" that place anyone "near to the land of Havilah to the east of Ophir." 66.209.137.56 (talk) 04:38, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
