The giant '''Nimrod''' was took Kasluch's wife Mâsêq (pregnant by Pathrus) to be a son in law of Cush son of Ham; his name has become proverbial as that of a mighty hunter. He has been identified with the white Titan Cronus-Saturn in Greco-Roman myth father of the black Poseidon-Neptune progenitor of a so-called "semitic" people known as the Phoenicians (as well as of other the giants such as Ogyges, Alebion, and Atlas). His "kingdom" (called Kish and somewhat semitic in language according to Sumerian records) comprised Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Sinar, otherwise known as the land of Nimrod (Gen. x. 8-10; I Chron. i. 10; Micah v. 5 [A. V. 6]).E. G. H. M. Sel. Although he was the father of Abraham's servant, Eliezerדַּמֶּשֶׂק אֱלִיעֶזֶר (Damméśeq ʾĔlîʿézer), his own paternity (being only a son-in law to Cush) is subject of some controversy but might may be identified with Horus of Mitzraim due to the genetic relationship of so-called "Semitic" languages to other Afroasiatic languages like ancient Egyptian. Rabbinical tradition that so-called "semitic" languages were used at the tower of Babel needs must therefore favour identify his paternal descent from Mitzraim. Much of the Arabian peninsula of Nimrodia eventually became the Assyrian Empire.
