'''Mamre''', full Hebrew name ''Elonei Mamre'' ("Oaks of Mamre"), is where [[Abraham]] built an altar ([[Genesis]] [[13:18]]). An ancient well, more than 5 [[Metre|m]] in diameter, is referred to as Abraham's Well.  It is perhaps also where [[David]] reigned, as archaeological excavations show signs of towers and walls from Davidic kingdom and early [[monarchy]].  A 2 m thick stone wall enclosing area 60 m wide and 83 m long was constructed by [[Herod the Great]], possibly as place of worship or walled compound serving later as market place or caravanserai.  [[Hadrian]] chose the site to sell remnants of [[Bar Kochba]]'s army into slavery.
