D. H. Müller, _Epigraphische Denkmäler aus Arabien_ (1889), p. 13. Footnote 46: Thus we have _anuki_ ‘I,’ Heb. _anochi_; _badiu_ ‘in his hand,’ Heb. _b’yado_; _akharunu_ ‘after him,’ Heb. _akharono_; _rusu_ ‘head,’ Heb. _rosh_; _kilubi_ ‘cage,’ Heb. _chelûb_; _har_ ‘mountain,’ Heb. _har_. See my _Patriarchal Palestine_, p. 247. Footnote 47: On the question of the site of Mizpah of Gilead, see G. A. Smith, _The Historical Geography of the Holy Land_, pp. 586, 587. Footnote 48: _Ausgrabungen in Sendschirli_ in _Mittheilungen aus den orientalischen Sammlungen_, xi. (1893). Footnote 49: _Records of the Past_, new ser., v. pp. vi, vii. Footnote 50: Dussaud (_Revue Archéologique_, iii. xxx. p. 346) states that according to the Ansarîyeh of the Gulf of Antioch the ‘Yudi’ or Hebrews formerly occupied their country, and constructed the ancient monuments found in it, one of which is called after the name of Solomon. For Neubauer’s suggestion that the Dinhabah of Gen. xxxvi. 32 is identical in name with the Dunip or Tunip of Northern Syria, see further on. Hoffmann (_Zeitschrift für Assyriologie_, xi. p. 210) maintains that the origin of the Aramaic dialects is to be sought in a Bedâwin language allied to that of the Arabs and Sabæans, which underwent intermixture with Canaanitish (or Phœnician) through the settlement of its speakers in a Canaanitish country. Footnote 51: In Assyrian letters of the Second Empire mention is made of the Nabathean Â-kamaru, the son of Amme’te’, and the Arabian Ami-li’ti, the son of Ameri or Omar (Harper, _Assyrian and Babylonian Letters_, iii. p. 262; iv. p. 437). Footnote 52: It is stated in Deut. xxiii. 4 that Balaam was hired from ‘Pethor of Aram Naharaim,’ not only by the Moabites, but by the Ammonites as well (though it is true that in the Hebrew text the word _sâkar_, ‘hired,’ is in the singular). It may be noted that the mother of Rehoboam, whose name is compounded with that of Am or Ammi (compare Rehab-iah, 1 Chron. xxiii. 17), was an Ammonitess (1 Kings xiv. 21). For a full discussion of the name of ’Ammi or ’Ammu, and the historical conclusions which may be deduced from it, see Hommel, _The Ancient Hebrew Tradition_, pp. 89 _sqq._ Footnote 53:
