"Canaan (Canaanite: כנען, Hebrew (a southern dialect of Canaanite): כְּנַעַן, kə.na.ʕan, Israeli: Knaan; from Hebrew, Greek: Χαναάν whence Latin: Canaan; and from Hebrew, Aramaic: ܟܢܥܢ whence Arabic: کنعان‎).

Canaan is an ancient term for a region approximating present-day Lebanon, plus adjoining coastal lands and parts of Jordan, Israel and Syria. The Hebrew Bible identifies Canaan with Lebanon - foremost with the coastal city of Sidon - but extends the "Land of Canaan" southward across Gaza to the "Brook of Egypt" and westward to the Jordan Valley, thus including modern Israel with the Palestinian Territories. This southern area included various ethnic groups. The Amarna Letters found in Ancient Egypt mention Canaan (Akkadian: Kinaḫḫu) in connection with cities along the Phoenician coast and into Upper Galilee. Many earlier Egyptian souces also make mention of numerous campaigns conducted in Ka-na-na, just inside Asia.

Various Canaanite sites have been excavated by archaeologists, most notably the Canaanite town of Ugarit in modern Syria, which was rediscovered in 1928. Much of the modern knowledge about the Canaanites stems from excavation in this area."
