Who this is

Not a person but a clan or territorial name: "the border of the Japhletite" marks a boundary point in the description of Ephraim and Manasseh's territorial allotment in Joshua 16:3. The Japhletites are otherwise unknown, and the name likely designated a local Canaanite clan whose territory bordered the tribal land.
