Amerytha [1]

( Ἀμερυθά according to some copies, see Hudson, in loc., while others have Ἀμερώθα; according to Reland, Palest. p. 560, both by erroneous transcription for Μηρώθ, which most editors give; (See Achabara)), a town of Upper Galilee, which Josephus fortified against the Romans (Life, 37); probably the same as MEROTH (See Meroth) (q.v.), which terminated Upper Galilee westward (Josephus, War, 3, 3, 1); and conjectured by Reland (Palest. p. 875) to have been the Mearah of the Sidonians ( Joshua 13:4).
