Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature

(Hebrew Amam', אֲמָם , Gathering; Sept. Ἀμάμ ) , a city in the southern part of the tribe of Judah, mentioned between Hazor and Shema ( Joshua 15:26), being apparently situated in the tract afterward assigned to Simeon ( Joshua 19:1-9); probably about midway on the southern border between the Mediterranean and the Dead Sea. The enumeration in  Joshua 15:32, shows that this name is to be taken in connection with the preceding, i.e. Hazor-Amam (See Hazor), which probably designates the same place as KERIOTH-HEZROM (See Kerioth-Hezrom) (q.v.). (See Tribe).

(See Am).
