A descendant of Noah, he was the ancestor of a people who lived near the Mediterranean and were producers of an expensive purple dye valued by the ancient world. (Everyone in the Bible, by William P. Barker, 1966)
He is the ancestor of the Pelopennesians and those from Sicily/Cyprus. (Internet)
He was the ancestor of the Aeolians, and his name constantly appears in Greek history and mythology. Two Greek cities were named after him, namely Elis and Elissus; and a district was named Ellas in his memory. There is also reason to believe that his name is perpetuated in the Greek paradise, the Elysian Fields. The Amarna tablets refer to his descendants as the Alashia, and the Hittites knew them as the Alasiya. Their name also appears in the Ugaritic inscriptions.
