(Ἀλλώμ v. r. Ἀδλών ), one of the "servants of Solomon," whose descendants are said to have returned from the captivity (1 Esdras 5:34); but as the genuine text (Ezra 2:57) has no such (nor the preceding) name, it is probably an error of copyists or editors for the appellative ἄλλων, "of others" (Fritzsche, Handb. in loc.), unless for AMON (See AMON) .
