  Girgashite
     dwelling in clayey soil, the descendants of the fifth son of
     Canaan (Gen. 10:16), one of the original tribes inhabiting the
     land of Canaan before the time of the Israelites (Gen. 15:21;
     Deut. 7:1). They were a branch of the great family of the
     Hivites. Of their geographical position nothing is certainly


     known. Probably they lived somewhere in the central part of
     Western Palestine.
