They are identified as one of the ancient inhabitants of the land of Canaan, specifically in the region of Philistia. The Avvites are noted for their displacement by the Caphtorim, who came from Caphtor (likely Crete).<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The Avvites were part of the broader Canaanite culture, which was characterized by a polytheistic religion and a society organized into city-states. The Avvites, like other Canaanite groups, were eventually displaced or assimilated by incoming peoples, such as the Philistines. This reflects the dynamic and often tumultuous history of the ancient Near East, where migrations and conquests frequently altered the demographic landscape.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5755.htm">Ivvah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>inhab. of Avva<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Avvites (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">עַוִּי</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective, of a people</b></font> only plural <font class="hebrew2">הַעַוִּים</font> as substantive, inhabitants of II. <font class="hebrew2">עַוָּה</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/17-31.htm">2 Kings 17:31</a> (another <font class="hebrew2">עַוִּים</font> below). <p><font class="hebrew2">עוֺז</font> </p><p style="sub1"> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun</b></font> see <font class="hebrew2">עֹז</font> below <font class="hebrew2">עזז</font>. <p> <font class="hebrew2">עַוִּים</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name</b></font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. of a people</b></font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">הָע</font> people on southwest coast of Mediterranean before the <font class="hebrew2">כַּפְתֹּרִים</font> (q. v.) came <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/2-23.htm">Deuteronomy 2:23</a>, and remaining thereafter <a href="/interlinear/joshua/13-3.htm">Joshua 13:3</a> (D<sup>2</sup>), <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ευαιοι</font>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2. location</b></font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">הָע</font> city in Benjamin <a href="/interlinear/joshua/18-23.htm">Joshua 18:23</a> (= <font class="hebrew2">הָעַי</font> ?), <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αιειν</font>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αυειμ</font>. — See also [<font class="hebrew2">עַוִּי</font>] above <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Avims, Avites <p>Patrial from <a href="/hebrew/5755.htm">Ivvah</a>;
