Ashteroth-karnaim

Easton’s Bible Dictionary

Ashteroth of the two horns, the abode of the Rephaim (Gen. 14:5). It may be identified with Ashtaroth preceding; called “Karnaim”, i.e., the “two-horned” (the crescent moon). The Samaritan version renders the word by “Sunamein,” the present es-Sunamein, 28 miles south of Damascus.

From M. G. Easton, Illustrated Bible Dictionary (1893), in the public domain.
