ka'-mon (qamon; the King James Version Camon):
The place where Jair was buffed (Judges
10:3 - 5).
It is possibly represented either by Kamm or Kumeim, ruins which lie about 6 and
7 miles respectively to the South-Southeast of Umm Keis. See further HAVVOTH-JAIR.
The ruins of Kamm, about 200 yds. square, crown a small elevation, and point to
an important place in the past. There are large rock-hewn cisterns to the South.
Among the ruins of Kumein, which are not considerable, a few mud huts are built,
occupied today by about 200 souls (Schumacher, Northern 'Ajlun, 137).
