Jarmuth

Jarmuth was an Amorite city in Canaan at the time of the Israelite settlement recorded in the Hebrew Bible.

According to Joshua 10:3–5, its king, Piram, was one of five kings who formed an alliance to attack Gibeon in response to Gibeon making a treaty with the Israelites led by Joshua, who had recently conquered the cities of Jericho and Ai.

[5] The site is located on the south of Beit Shemesh, near Bayt Nattif, and is now a National Park.

Another Jarmuth became a Levitical city given to the Gershonites within the territory of the Tribe of Issachar according to Joshua 21:20.

[2] Some identify it with the site of Kawkab al-Hawa, which, if correct, might also correspond to Second Temple period Agrippina.
