A city of Babylonia, some of the inhabitants of which migrated with the Jews under Zerubbabel, but were unable to prove their Israelitish descent (Ezra, 2:59). In the corresponding list of Nehemiah 7:61, the place is called Addon. I Esd. 5:36 has Charaathalan which is probably due to a running together of the words Cherub and Addan.
