Zemarite Zemarite

The Zemarites are descendants of Canaan, son of Ham, son of Noah.

The name Zemarite is derived from an unused and assumed root smr (smr 1931) which yields smr (semer 1931a), wool. Another derivation of this same root is sammeret (sammeret 1931b), treetop; BDB suggests that this connection possibly stems from this particular kind of tree's wooly, feathery appearance.

The Zemarites are Wooly Boys.
