Secacah [1]

For this site Lieut. Conder suggests (Tent Work, 2:339) the modern Sikkeh, but he does not indicate the locality. It is thus referred to in the Quar. Statement of the "Pal. Explor. Fund," January 1881, page 55: "In the Judeean desert; possibly the ruin Sikkeh, east of Bethany (sheet 17)." But no such name appears on the Map nor in the accompanying Memoirs.
