There were three branches: Shem, Ham, Japheth. Someone has finally found the last one of them. < /s >

Japheth is the same as the Greek Iapetos (one of the Titans). One of Japheth's sons (Genesis 10.2) is Javan which means the Greeks (Ionians).

One of the moons of Saturn is named Iapetus.

In the Septuagint, "Japheth" is spelled Iota-alpha-phi-epsilon-theta and "Javan" is spelled Iota-omega-upsilon-alpha-nu.
