A place name appearing in Joshua 15:11, marking a point on Judah's northern border near the Philistine territory. The locative ending (-ōnāh) indicates motion toward this site. The LXX renders it as Sokchoth or Sacharona, showing variant traditions. The precise identification remains uncertain, though its position between Mount Baalah and Jabneel places it in the Shephelah or coastal region. Border descriptions like this functioned to define tribal inheritance legally, ensuring each tribe knew its territorial limits. The name may relate to roots associated with drinking or intoxication (שִׁכָּרוֹן), though this etymology is speculative.
