HANNATHON

han'-a-thon (channathon): A city on the northern boundary of Zebulun (Joshua 19:14). It is probably identical with Kefar Hananyah, which the Mishna gives as marking the northern limit of lower Galilee (Neubauer, Geog. du Talmud, 179). It is represented by the modern Kefr 'Anan, about 3 miles Southeast of er-Rameh.
