the Sinite—a Canaanite people group, associated with northern Canaan or the Lebanon region
The Sinite is listed as one of the Canaanite peoples in the Table of Nations, appearing in Genesis 10:17 and 1 Chronicles 1:15. The name always appears with the definite article ('the Sinite'), suggesting it functions as a gentilic (ethnic designation). Various ancient sources mention places in the northern Levant that might correspond to this group, including a city called Sianu near the Mediterranean coast in the Lebanon region, mentioned in Assyrian inscriptions and by the Greek geographer Strabo. The exact identification remains uncertain, but the Sinite likely inhabited territory in northern Canaan or Phoenicia.

1. sense 1 — A gentilic (ethnic) designation for a Canaanite people group, appearing with the definite article in Genesis 10:17 and 1 Chronicles 1:15. Listed among the descendants of Canaan, the Sinite likely inhabited northern Canaan or the Lebanese coast, possibly associated with a city called Sianu known from extra-biblical sources. The multilingual glosses preserve the gentilic form: 'the Sinite' (English), 'el sineo' (Spanish = the Sinite), 'le Sinite' (French), treating this as an ethnic or tribal name in the genealogical catalog of Canaanite peoples. 2×
