    • Place name meaning, precious stone. A city the tribe of Dan occupied (Josh 19:47). Also called Laish. Originally a Canaanite city in northern Palestine known for its carefree existence (Judg 18:7). It was spied out by the Danites as a place for their dwelling after the Philistines forced them from the coastal region. After finding it suitable, the Danites invaded Laish and renamed the city and area Dan.
