Baal-tamar

ba-al-ta'-mar ba`al tamar; Baal Thamar, "Baal of the palm tree"): Evidently a seat of heathen worship (Jg 20:33) between Bethel and Gibeah (compare Jg 20:18,31). The place was known to Eusebius (Onomasticon, which see), but trace of the name is now lost. Conder suggests that it may be connected with the palm tree of Deborah (Jg 4:5) which was between Bethel and Ramah (HDB, under the word).
