"Who can stand before the sons of Anak. 12 we are..." anyone else remember this quote? The Anakim had a number system based on the number twelve. Partly becuase of the 12 sons of Anak, partly because polydactylism(6th finger on each hand) was a common occurence in that society. Few fragments of their people exist to say, "We were here." Grim reminder of the Isrealite orders 'destroy everything.'
