(Heb. Aditha yim, עֲדַיתִיַם , Double Prey or Double Ornament; Sept. Ἀδιαθάϊμ , but some copies omit; Vulg. Adithaim), a town in the plain of Judah, mentioned between Sharaim and Gederah ( Joshua 15:36). Eusebius (Onomast. s.v.) mentions two places of the name of Adatha ( Ἀδαθά , Jerome, Aditha and Adia), one near Gaza, and the other near Diospolis (Lydda); the former being commonly supposed to be the same with Adithaim, and the latter with Hadid; and probably corresponding respectively to the two places called Adida (q.v.) by Josephus. Schwarz (Palest. p. 102) accordingly thinks that Adithaim is represented by the modern village Eddis, 5 Eng. miles east of Gaza (comp. Robinson s Researches, 2, 370 sq.); but this is too far from the associated localities of the same group, (See Tribe),which require a position not far from Moneisin, a village with traces of antiquity, about 5 miles south of Ekron (Van de Velde, Memoir, p. 114).
