Calneh
Morrish Bible Dictionary
One of the ancient cities in the land of Shinar built by Nimrod. Genesis 10:10; Amos 6:2 . Some identify it with Ctesiphon beyond the Tigris; others with Niffer , about 60 miles E.S.E.; but on the maps it is usually placed at 32 10' N, 45 5' E , not coinciding with either of these.
