Iapheth is said to be the coastal port of Ioppē. Apparently it was sometimes confused with 'ēpha or Sykaminos around Mt.Karmēl. Neither 'ēpha nor Sykaminos are important to the Onomasticon but Ioppē is (cf. 110:24).
In Joshua 19 an Iaphia in v.12 and an Iapho in v.46. The former is in Zebulōn and the latter in Dan. The Onomasticon conflates the two in this entry unless they switched loyalty in biblical times. Iaphia-Iapheth is falsely equated with Ioppēe. The identity of Iaphia and 'Epha are not made clear.
Four sites are involved. Iaphia of Zabulōn is not really localized in the Onomasticon . It is probably Yafe near Nazareth. Ioppē was a well known port and referent for the Onomasticon and needed no localization. Sykaminos is located near Mt.Karmēl identified with 'ēpha but Sykaminos is probably south of Mt.Karmēl, Tell es Samak and Epha is north and is ancient area of present day Haifa. Sykaminos is an "oppidum" in Latin (cp. K. 10:25 and Appendix I). Iapho which is probably Ioppē is not mentioned here or in the entry at K. 110:24. But Vespasian made Ioppē a municipality.
