Chalaaboun[1] (Arabic: شلعبون) is an archeological site in the outskirts of Ain Ebel in South Lebanon.

Renan believed that Chalaaboun was the Biblical town of Shaalabbin of the Tribe of Dan.

To the west of this hill rises a second, the slopes of which are terraced, the highest platform being sustained by a strong wall.

[4] In 1881, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described it: "Heaps of well-cut stones, some of large size ; four or five sarcophagi, very large and well-preserved, decorated with figures holding up a wreath, similar to those at Kades, but better preserved.
