Where is Dannah in the Bible?

Dannah was a city located in the hill country of Judah, mentioned in the biblical book of Joshua as one of the towns allotted to the tribe of Judah during the division of the Promised Land. Situated in the mountainous region of Judah, Dannah represented one of many settlements established by the Israelites as they inhabited the territory God had promised to them. The city's inclusion in Joshua 15:49 reflects its importance as a territorial marker during the period of Israelite settlement and tribal inheritance. While Dannah is not the site of major biblical events, its mention underscores the comprehensive nature of Joshua's account of how the land was distributed among the twelve tribes.
