Where is Lakkum in the Bible?

Lakkum was a border town of the tribe of Naphtali located in northern Israel, as recorded in Joshua 19:33. This town marked part of the territorial boundary assigned to Naphtali when the Israelites divided the Promised Land among the twelve tribes. While Lakkum appears only briefly in biblical narrative, its mention in Joshua's account of the tribal allotments demonstrates the careful delineation of Israel's land distribution during the conquest period. The exact modern location of Lakkum remains uncertain, though it would have been situated in the region of Galilee in what is now northern Israel.
