Canaan

כנען בן חם he

Son of Ham and grandson of Noah in the Hebrew Bible (Genesis 10)

A life on the record,
dated by its sources.

Roles, not beliefs

Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Family

The family of Canaan

Parents, consorts and children as the accounts give them. Choose a consort to see the children the stories give the two.

Accounts differ about a god’s family. Where they name different parents, the tree sets them side by side instead of choosing one.

As the accounts tell it
The family as a list · 6

Kinship in an account 6

What this means

Parentage as a named source tells it. Not an independently established biological relationship, and different accounts disagree.

Does not imply an independently established biological relationship · agreement between accounts · shared parentage in every account · descent from the same generation in a single tree

Works this figure appears in. A work’s date is the source’s, not this figure’s.

Connections

How Canaan connects

Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.

Recorded events and days 1

What this means

Events Wikidata records in a subject’s history, and the day a festival is kept. Not a complete history, and the day a festival falls on is not when it began.

Does not imply that these are all the events in its history · that Wikidata ranks the events by importance
