Tristram (Bible Places, page 17) and Conder (Tent Work, 2:340) identify this with the present Beit Sira, two and a half miles south-west of Beit-ur el-Tahta (Lower Bethhoron), which the recent extension of the border of Ephraim, so as to include Abu-Shusheh (Gezer), allows. The place is described in the Memoirs to the Ordnance Survey, 3:16, as "a small village on a swell in the low hills. A main road passes through it. The water supply is artificial."
