Caleb lived out his life in strength in Hebron, his land, that he shared with his daughter as did Job who began the story of the bible account many years ago.

Caleb was one of the two that made it into the Promised Land and after fighting for the land for others he settled in his place of Hebron where the ancient of faith are buried.

It seems that Hebron had another name.
