Gedor

Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography

GEDOR(Γεδώρ), one of the towns of Judah situated in the hill country. ( Josh. 15.58; 1 Chron. 4.39.) Eusebius mentions a village named Κέδους, 10 miles distant from Diospolis (Lydda), on the road to Eleutheropolis ( Onomast. s. v. ), which may possibly be identical with a place with ruins on the brow of the high mountain ridge . . called Jedûr, which is doubtless the same as the Gedor of the mountains of Judah.( Biblical Res. vol. 2. p. 338.)
