Kirjathsepher


"City of books, Josh. 15:15; same as Kirjath-sannah (q.v.), now" "represented by the valley of ed-Dhaberiyeh, south-west of" Hebron. The name of this town is an evidence that the Canaanites "were acquainted with writing and books. "The town probably" "contained a noted school, or was the site of an oracle and the" "residence of some learned priest." The "books" were probably" engraved stones or bricks.
