Gaulon

Go´lan or Gaulon, a Levitical town of Bashan, in the tribe of Manasseh (;;; ), from which the small province of Gaulonitis took its name. The word is recognized in the present Jolan or Djolan, mentioned by Burckhardt as giving name to a district lying east of the lake of Tiberias, and composed of the ancient Gaulonitis, with part of Bashan and Argob.
