No! The name Ham actually means Black or hot. Ham progenied all of the

African nations. Any group of non black peoples that came into Africa from the outside could not be Hamites. People of caucasian descent are from the line of Japheth and not Ham. Hopefully this clears up the erroneous definition of the Hamite.

How in the world could Hamites be of caucasoid descent when Ham was the father of the Black African nations?

The Hamites are an African people but of caucasoid descent they were not. In the biblical account of the flood, there were eight people left-- Noah, his wife, his three sons and their wives. The three sons were Shem, Ham and Japheth. Each was the father of the various nations. Japheth was the progenitor of what we know today as the European nations. Shem was the father of Arabians, Assyirians, the Mesopotamian Syrians, Lydians, and the Armenians. From Ham came Egypt, Lybia, Ethiopia, Sudan and all other African Nations. To be Hamite is to be of Negroid descent. The idea of Hamites being of caucasoid descent is a diliberate lie born in the 19th century when french expeditioners explored Africa. Up until that time, it was well known even by the caucasion populations that Hamites were Black Africans. However, when they undertook this expidition, they uncovered undeniable evidence of the grand and sophisticated civilizations, innovations and technology, arts and culture and more that ancient Africans had developed over 1000 years before anyone else in the world had. Being proponents of racism and white supremecy, in spite of the undeniable evidence they themselves found, these explorers (caucasions) refused to ascribe any of this to Black Africans so they decided to cover it up with a lie and that lie was that "Hamites were of caucasoid descent and not negroid" . That way whites could get the undue credit for what was found in Africa. This deliberate lie is called the Hamitic Hypothesis and it was used for a long time by racists to perpetuate white supremecy lies to the world.
