Ataroth: A City, or Possibly Two Different Cities, of Ephraim

Source: Nav

Joshua 16:2, 5, 7 It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz) and proceeded to the border of the Archites in Ataroth. / This was the territory of the descendants of Ephraim by their clans: The border of their inheritance went from Ataroth-addar in the east to Upper Beth-horon / From Janoah it went down to Ataroth and Naarah, and then reached Jericho and came out at the Jordan.
Joshua 18:13 From there the border crossed over to the southern slope of Luz (that is, Bethel) and went down to Ataroth-addar on the hill south of Lower Beth-horon.
