ELICIANS. In the book of Judith there is mention of Arioch, King of the Elicians. The Greek and Syriac read, Arioch, King of the Elymæans, or people of the land of Elam in Media, or in the ancient country of the Persians. We see in Genesis, Arioch King of Ellasar; this Kingdom of Ellasar might very well be that of the Elicians.
