The Canaanites (progeny of Ham) during the Ice Age (which followed Noah’s Flood), who settled beyond (and within) the Strait of Gibraltar, had adopted the Hebrew language after the Tower of Babel, hence the ancient place names such as Iberian peninsula, Ebro river, and even Hibernia (British isles) far to the northwest, thusly a thousand years later, king Solomon with the Phoenicians (Canaanites) knew right where to go for the mineral riches of the Sierra Morena mountains of far southwestern Spain.
