Dodanim
Easton's Bible Dictionary
Leaders, a race descended from Javan (Genesis 10:4 ). They are known in profane history as the Dardani, originally inhabiting Illyricum. They were a semi-Pelasgic race, and in the ethnographical table (Genesis 10 ) they are grouped with the Chittim (q.v.). In 1 Chronicles 1:7 , they are called Rodanim. The LXX. and the Samaritan Version also read Rhodii, whence some have concluded that the Rhodians, the inhabitants of the island of Rhodes, are meant. Copyright Statement
