- A man from the tribe of Benjamin living at the time of Egypt and Wilderness, only mentioned at 1Ch.8.14;
- only referred to as Ahio אַחְיוֹ;

Ahio is mentioned briefly in the genealogy of the tribe of Benjamin. He was a son of Beriah, son of Elpaal, who was a descendant of Benjamin through his son Shaharaim. (1Ch.8.8-14)
The genealogy lists several of Elpaal's family, including Ahio, but does not provide any additional information about their lives or roles within the tribe. The purpose of the genealogy is to trace the lineage of significant Benjamite families and individuals.
As a member of the tribe of Benjamin, Ahio would have been part of the Israelite community, but the biblical text does not record any specific events or contributions associated with him.
