families, was [thus]
Or what follows is the description of it:

Joshua 16:5 In-Context

3 Then it descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites as far as Lower Beth-horon, then to Gezer and over to the Mediterranean Sea.
4 This was the homeland allocated to the families of Joseph’s sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
5 The following territory was given to the clans of the tribe of Ephraim. The boundary of their homeland began at Ataroth-addar in the east. From there it ran to Upper Beth-horon,
6 then on to the Mediterranean Sea. From Micmethath on the north, the boundary curved eastward past Taanath-shiloh to the east of Janoah.
7 From Janoah it turned southward to Ataroth and Naarah, touched Jericho, and ended at the Jordan River.
