Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible (1898) & Schaff's Bible Dictionary
AT'AROTH (crowns). (1). A town of Gad, east of the Jordan, Num 32:3, Num 32:34, about 7 miles north-west of Dibon; now the ruin Attarus. (2). A town of Ephraim, Josh 16:2; perhaps the same as Ataroth-adar and Ataroth-addar. Josh 18:13. It may be the modern Atâra, 6 miles north-west of Bethel, though Conder suggests that it is identical with ruins discovered at ed-Dârieh. (3). In 1 Chr 2:54, Ataroth, the house of Joab, if a place, may refer to
one in Judah, which Schwartz would identify with Latrum, between Jaffa and Jerusalem.
