Who is Ham’s Wife?

A young adult woman with a round, alert face and dark hair covered by a short wool veil draped to the shoulders. Her ankle-length undyed wool gown is layered with a rough linen underdress and a dust-brown mantle pinned by a carved wooden clasp. She wears soft leather sandals and carries a reed basket of grain. The humble ivory, ochre, and brown clothing reflects an antediluvian family-clan household.

Featured in 1 Bible Heroes storybook, first appearing in Genesis 6:9-22.
