http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aram,_son_of_Shem
«/b»According to the «u»Table of Nations «/u» in «u»Genesis «/u»10 of the «u»Hebrew Bible «/u», «b»Aram«/b» ( or was a son of «u»Shem «/u», and the father of «u»Uz «/u», «u»Hul «/u», «u»Gether «/u» and Mash.
In older historiographic sources, he is usually regarded as being the eponymous ancestor of the «u»Aramaean «/u» people of Northern «u»Mesopotamia «/u» and «u»Syria «/u». While the historical Aramaeans do not make their definite appearance until ca. 1300 BC, there are disputed references to a campaign against "Aram" as early as 2300 BC, in the inscriptions of «u»Naram-Sin «/u» of «u»Akkad «/u».
According to the «u»«i»Book of Jubilees «/u»«/i» (9:5), the inheritance of the Earth to be bequeathed to the descendants of Aram included all of the land between the «u»Tigris «/u» and «u»Euphrates «/u» rivers, as far north as the mountains; although historically, the Aramaeans never at any time occupied the whole of this territory, which would include all of «u»Babylonia «/u».
The land of «u»Aram-Naharaim «/u» ("Aram of the Two Rivers") that included «u»Haran «/u», mentioned five times in the Bible, is traditionally thought to be populated by descendants of Aram, as is the nearby land of «u»Aram «/u» that included «u»Aram Damascus «/u» and «u»Aram Rehob «/u».
Aram son of Shem is also revered as a «u»prophet «/u» in «u»Mandaeism «/u».
