Jarmuth, Template:Langx,[1] was the name of two cities in Canaan.[2]

The Douay–Rheims Bible has an alternative spelling, Jaramoth.

Jarmuth near Beit Shemesh

Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". Jarmuth was an Amorite city in Canaan at the time of the Israelite settlement recorded in the Hebrew Bible. According to Script error: No such module "Bibleverse"., its king, Piram, was one of five kings who formed an alliance to attack Gibeon in response to Gibeon making a treaty with the Israelites led by Joshua, who had recently conquered the cities of Jericho and Ai. This Jarmuth is commonly identified with a modern site variously called Tel Yarmuth[3] in Hebrew, Tel Jarmuth,[2] or Khirbet el-Yarmûk[4] in Arabic (grid position 147124 PAL).[5] The site is located on the south of Beit Shemesh, near Bayt Nattif, and is now a National Park.[6] The Park spans over an area of 267 dunams (nearly 66 acres).

Jarmuth in Issachar

Another Jarmuth became a Levitical city given to the Gershonites within the territory of the Tribe of Issachar according to Joshua 21:20. It is not mentioned in the parallel list of Levitical cities in 1 Chronicles 6:73; Ramoth is mentioned in its place. The site of the Issacharian Jarmuth is not yet known.[2] Some identify it with the site of Kawkab al-Hawa, which, if correct, might also correspond to Second Temple period Agrippina.[7]
