Beit Kahil (Bayt Kāḩil)
Beit Kahil (بيت كاحل) is a Palestinian village in the Hebron Governorate in the southern West Bank, located seven kilometers northwest of Hebron.
Victor Guérin noted that the place was apparently ancient, and suggested that Beit Kahil was to be recognized with the Latin Cela (Greek: Κηλά), described by Eusebius in his Onomasticon, rather than with the Biblical Keilah (Greek: Κεειλά), which was already a ruin in Guérin's time.
