Descendants
It is generally understood that at least a portion of Hul's descendants settled in the district of Hûleh, near the sources of the Jordan River. Josephus maintains that the sons of Hul founded Armenia near Kir or Kur. This would have been after their captivity in c. 732 BC. There can be no doubt that they gave rise to the Halani who were also known as Alani or Alans. Mount Alaunus was named after them. A tribe in south Georgia, bordering Armenia is known as the Syanians which may be a corruption of "Syrians" of which they may be a mixed remnant. Some writers even claim that the Ossetes, living in this area, are now mixed descendants of the Alans or perhaps more accurately, mixed descendants of Uz or Oz.
