The site of Libnah, a royal city, has not been satisfactorily identified. Its position is generally indicated by the order of events in <span class='bible'>Jos 10:28-37<\/span>. Ether and Ashan also appear in <span class='bible'>Jos 19:7<\/span> as Simeonite cities &lsquo;with their villages&rsquo;, shared with Judah, which demonstrates that they are more to the south.

Iphtah, Ashnah, and Nezib are unidentifiable at present. <\/p>\n<p> Keilah is mentioned in <span class='bible'>Neh 3:17-18<\/span>, and in <span class='bible'>1Sa 23:1-5<\/span> as subject to Philistine invasion resulting in a great victory for David. It is probably the Kelti of the Amarna letters, and may be Khirbet Qila on a hill ten kilometres east of Beit Guvrin which commands the ascent to Hebron south from Socoh, in the valley between the Shephelah and the hills. Achzib is possibly the Chezib of <span class='bible'>Gen 38:5<\/span> and later conquered by Sennacherib (see also <span class='bible'>Mic 1:14<\/span>). Mareshah is a town in the Shephelah covering the road up the Wadi Zeita to Hebron. It is now Tell Sandahanna. The inhabitants claimed descent from Shelah (<span class='bible'>1Ch 4:21<\/span>).
