Tarshish

Tarshish is mentioned in Genesis 10:4 and 1 Chronicles 1:7 as a son of Javan and grandson of Noah. He was born after the flood and is listed among the descendants of Japheth. Tarshish is associated with the ancient city of Tarshish, a distant port known for its wealth and maritime trade. His descendants likely settled in or near this city, which some identify with Tartessos in Spain or Tarsus in Cilicia.
