Who is…
Ashkenaz

also known as: Ashchenaz

Ashkenaz is one of the three sons of Gomer (Genesis 10:3), and founder of one of the tribes of the Japhetic race.

They are mentioned in connection with Minni and Ararat, and hence their original seat must have been in Armenia (Jeremiah 51:27), probably near the Black Sea, which, from their founder, was first called Axenus, and afterwards the Euxine.
