They dwelt where Ammon, having dislodged them, afterward dwelt when Israel invaded Canaan. E. of the modern rich and undulating Belka, from whence the Amorites expelled Moab. Zamzummims was the Ammonite name for the Rephaim, N.E. of Jordan, Peraea; the Rephaim once extended S.W. as far as the valley of the Rephaim near Hinnom and Bethlehem, S. of Jerusalem.
