Gibeon (Hebrew: גבעון‎, Standard Hebrew Giv'on, Tiberian Hebrew Giḇʻôn) was a Canaanite city north of Jerusalem that was conquered by Joshua. Joshua 10:12 and 2 Samuel 21:2 describes the Gibeonites as not being Israelites, but as Amorites. Giv'on Hadashah ("New Gibeon") is an Israeli settlement located west of al-Jib. Al-Jib is the modern equivalent, in terms of the name and location, of Gibeon.
