ā´nim (ענים, ‛ānı̄m, “springs”): One of the cities of the hill country of Judah mentioned immediately after Eshtemoa (). It is probably represented by the double ruin of el Ghuwein situated South of es Semu‛a. The surface remains are Byzantine - a Christian town called Anem was here in the 4th century, but it is clearly an ancient site of importance (PEF, III, 408, Sh, XXV).
