CALNEH

1. City in Babylon (Gn 10:10).

2. City identified as Kullani (Kullan Koy), about 20 miles (32.2 kilometers) north of Aleppo in northern Syria. This northern identification is hinted at in Isaiah 10:9, where Calno is associated with Carchemish, some 50 miles (80.5 kilometers) to the northeast, as well as in the context of Amos 6:2 (note the north-to-south progression—Calneh, Hamath, Gath). Canneh in Ezekiel 27:23 seems to refer to the same general location and is perhaps to be linked with Calneh. Kullani was captured by Tiglath-pileser II, king of Assyria, about 741 BC.
