Originally called Laish, this northern city was renamed Dan and became the northern boundary marker of Israel, paired with Beersheba in the south ("from Dan to Beersheba"). The tribe of Dan settled there after migrating from their original inheritance, and it later housed a pagan shrine. Military leaders assessed Israel's reach by marching from one end to the other.

Hear its story sung

"The king said to Joab the captain of the army, who was with him, “Now go back and forth through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and count the people, that I may know the sum of the people.”"
