Who this is

Letushim was not an individual but one of three tribal groups, alongside Asshurim and Leummim, descended from Dedan, a grandson of Abraham through Keturah (Genesis 25:3). Like the other two, its plural Hebrew form marks it as the name of a clan or people rather than a single ancestor, and its historical identity is uncertain.
