One of the 34 kings conquered by Joshua (Joshua 12:20; Joshua 11:1). In Joshua 19:15 Shimron Meron appears among the towns of Zebulun. The Talmud identifies Shimron Meron with Simuniyeh, W. of Nazareth. The Jewish traveler Ηap-Ρarchi fixes it south of Mount Gilboa, at a village Dar Meron (Asher's Benj. 2:434).
