Gender ios not indicated, but since the other parent of Neuesi was Adama, undoubtedly the same person as Adama the eparch of Nobadia, Anenikol must be Neuesi's mother.

Gender not specified.
It is uncertain whether this is a double proper name or another kind of formation. Alternatives include 'dauther of Anio', 'asti of Anio' (title + toponym), 'asti of Anio' (teritorrial unit).
