Sabtecha appears in the table of nations as the fifth son of Cush, grouped with Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, and Raamah among the peoples descended from Ham (Genesis 10:7; 1 Chronicles 1:9). As with his brothers' names, Sabtecha almost certainly designates a tribal group and its territory rather than one man, generally placed somewhere in southern Arabia or the adjacent African coast, though its exact location has never been fixed.
