Prince of a place so called, in the tribe of Judah, ( Joshua 15:31 )

Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, had a daughter of this name, but neither he nor she are here meant, ( Joshua 15:16 Joshua 15:17 ) but by whom Caleb, the son of Hezron, had this daughter, is not said; perhaps by Maachah his concubine last mentioned.
