Put
Put (Pût) designates a people group and their geographic region, generally recognized as a non-Israelite nation associated with the descendants of Ham mentioned in biblical genealogies. The term primarily refers to a nation or land on the periphery of Israelite focus, often listed among other foreign peoples in oracles and military contexts. The precise identification of the group or region remains uncertain but is associated in ancient sources with North African and possibly Libyan populations, as well as with regions involved in Egyptian or Near Eastern military affairs.
