Madmannnah [1]
(Hebrew Madmannah', מִדְמִנָּה , Dunghill; Sept. Μεδεμηνά and Μαδμηνά , v. r. Μαχαρίμ and Βέδ ; Vulg. Medemena and h Adnmena ) , a town in the extreme south of Judah ( Joshua 15:31, where it is mentioned between Ziklag and Sansannah), hence included in the territory afterwards assigned to Simeon. From 1 Chronicles 2:49, it appears to have been founded or, rather, occupied by Shaaph (or perhaps by a son of his whose name it bore), the son of Caleb's concubine Maachah. Eusebius and Jerome identify it with a town of their time called Meno '''''Ï''''' S'' ( Μηνωϊ v Σ ), near the city of Gaza ( Onomnast. p. 89). (See Madmenah).
Instead of Madmannah and Sansannah of Joshua 15:31, the parallel passage ( Joshua 19:5; comp. 1 Chronicles 4:31), enumerating the Simeonitish cities, has Beth-Marcaboth and Hazar-susim, probably the same respectively (Keil's Joshua, ad loc.). Schwarz thinks ( Palestine, p. 101) that it was the Levitical city Mandah, in which, according to the "Book of Jasher," Simeon was buried; but this locality is wholly apocryphal. The first stage southward from Gaza is now el-Miny  y (Robinson, Researches, 1:563), which, in default of a better, is suggested by Kiepert (in his Map, 1856) as the modern representative of Menois, and therefore of Madmannah.' A more plausible identification, however, is that of Van de Velde (Travels, 2:130) of the modern ruined village Mirkihb, west of the south end of the Dead Sea, as a representative of the ancient Beth-marcaboth.
