yigal....In the past, there were scholars who suggested 
that these  "Benjaminites" were the ancestors of the biblical tribe - the 
chronological  and geographical distance is much to large for this to be 
taken seriously. 
 
              J   Anna  .... thanks, yigal, for following-up.  Do we have  
any idea re the thinking of these scholars  {apparently mistaken scholars }  
re 
pre-jacob  ''benjaminites.''   i.e., what sort of details did  they use to 
support their thesis.   Even though their stance may be  inaccurate,  i'd 
like to 
research the matter   a wee bit  more.   Thanks
