Kadmonites

　　ancient inhabitants of the land of Canaan, whose habitation was beyond Jordan, to the east of Phenicia, Genesis 15:19 . The Kadmonites were descended from Canaan, the son of Ham. It has been conjectured that the celebrated Cadmus, the founder of Thebes in Boeotia, was originally a Kadmonite; and that his wife, Hermione, was so named from Mount Hermon.
