Lehite PN Member of Gadianton band, brother of Chief Judge Seezoram; ca. 23 BC both were murdered (Helaman 9:26)

The element antum occurs in several Book of Mormon names, but remains unexplained. Perhaps in this name it is not a separate element, but the name rather consists of sean and the ending tum. Possible Semitic roots would include š/ś/sʿn š/ś/sʾn.

Other suggestions include Egyptian prefix s3, “son” (JAT) and cognate of EgyptianHittite Sandon, Sandas (LID, 33, ABM, 238).
