ā´nim ( ענים , ‛ānı̄m , "springs"): One of the cities of the hill country of Judah mentioned immediately after Eshtemoa (Joshua 15:50 ). It is probably represented by the double ruin of el Ghuwein situated South of es Semu‛a . The surface remains are Byzantine - a Christian town called Anem was here in the 4th century, but it is clearly an ancient site of importance (PEF , III, 408, Sh, XXV ).
