Where is Chephar-ammoni in the Bible?

Chephar-ammoni was a town in ancient Canaan that was allotted to the tribe of Benjamin during the division of the Promised Land. The place is mentioned in Joshua 18:24 as part of the territorial inheritance given to Benjamin following Israel's conquest of Canaan. Based on archaeological evidence, Chephar-ammoni is believed to be identical with Kefr 'Ana, a ruined site located approximately two miles northeast of Bethel in the central hill country of ancient Palestine. As one of Benjamin's designated cities, Chephar-ammoni held significance in establishing the tribal boundaries and settlement patterns of early Israel, though it is referenced only briefly in Scripture.
