Dannah appears only in Joshua's territorial allotment to Judah, listed among cities in the hill country near Hebron. Its location just before Kiriath-sannah (another name for Debir) places it in the southern highlands. The Greek Septuagint renders it 'Renna,' suggesting possible textual variation or different vocalization. Like many towns in these boundary lists, its exact archaeological identification remains uncertain. Nevertheless, its inclusion in Scripture's careful geographic records testifies to the detailed preservation of tribal inheritance traditions.
