Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible (1898)
RA'MATH OF THE SOUTH, a place in the southern border of Simeon. Josh 19:8; 1 Sam 30:27. In the latter passage it is called "South Ramoth" to distinguish it from Ramoth beyond Jordan. It has been identified with Jehel Barabir, a hill 45 miles south-west of Beer-sheba, and also with Kurmul, 20 miles south-east of Beer-sheba; and lastly, with Tell el-Lekiyeh, near Beersheba.
