Phut, Put
        (a bow) the third name in the list of the sons of Ham Ge 10:6; 1Ch 1:8 elsewhere applied to an African country or people. The few mentions of Phut in the Bible clearly indicate a country or people of Africa, and, it must be added, probably not far from Egypt. Isa 66:19; Jer 46:9; Eze 27:10; 30:5; 38:5; Na 3:9 Some identify it with Libya, in the northern part Africa near the Mediterranean Sea; others, as Mr. Poole, with Nubia, south of Egypt.
