Usage: The name "Hemmór" refers to a Hivite prince mentioned in the Old Testament. He is the father of Shechem, who is involved in the narrative concerning Dinah, the daughter of Jacob. The name is associated with themes of negotiation, conflict, and familial relations in the biblical narrative. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of one's character or role in a narrative. Hamor, as a Hivite prince, would have been a person of considerable influence and authority in his region. The Hivites were one of the Canaanite tribes inhabiting the land before the Israelites' conquest. The account of Hamor and Shechem is set in a time when tribal and familial alliances were crucial for survival and prosperity.
