Cuthah
    one of the Babylonian cities or districts from which Shalmaneser
    transplanted certain colonists to Samaria (2 Kings 17:24). Some
    have conjectured that the "Cutheans" were identical with the
    "Cossaeans" who inhabited the hill-country to the north of the
    river Choaspes. Cuthah is now identified with Tell Ibrahim, 15
    miles north-east of Babylon.
