comments: [9] Mayer (UKJ 1:124; 4:1650) reads this as a specific location, Panya Naame, which he identifies with a tribal district: Banu Nu ‘aim, Israel, PG 183/225. But Pope Paschal II’s letter of 29 July 1103 and King Baldwin I’s charter of Mar 25 – Sept 23 1106 confirm rather that the phrase should be read as referring to Naame/Neeme in the territory of Paneas [Banias].
