Joshuas catalog of Judahs fifth hill country district names ten Calebite towns south and east of Hebron including Maon Carmel Ziph Juttah Jezreel and Jokdeam — the heartland where David later hid from Saul.
Joshua 15:55-57 catalogs the fifth district of Judah's hill country inheritance: "Maon, Carmel, and Ziph, and Juttah, And Jezreel, and Jokdeam, and Zanoah, Cain, Gibeah, and Timnah; ten cities with their villages." This was the Calebite heartland south and east of Hebron, soaked in pastoral imagery — the very landscape where David would later flee Saul, where Nabal would refuse provisions to David's men at Carmel, and where Abigail would intercept David's wrath. These ten towns formed the spiritual and geographic core of southern Judah.
