Lamec (descendant of Cain)


Lamec is a character mentioned in the Bible whose name derives from the Sumerian lumga, a word that is a title of the god Ea, patron of music.

Your name appears in the list of remote generations; In the genealogy of Cain, Lamec represents the evolution of culture, which we see crystallized with his two women, Ada and Zila whose names mean adornment or beauty and shadows, respectively. Also the names of their children are very significant: Jabal, Jubal and Tubal, which represent the different forms of production (Jbl translates to produce), namely, shepherds, musicians and metallurgists.
