Where is Dimonah in the Bible?

Dimonah was a city located in the Negev region of southern Judah, mentioned in the Bible as one of the towns allotted to the tribe of Judah during the conquest and division of Canaan (Joshua 15:22). The Negev was a semi-arid area south of the Judean highlands, characterized by sparse settlement and pastoral activity. While Dimonah appears only briefly in biblical records, its inclusion in the list of Judahite cities reflects the territorial boundaries established for the tribe after Israel's settlement in Canaan. The exact location of ancient Dimonah remains uncertain, though it is generally identified with the Negev region in what is today southern Israel.
