From: Questions and Answers on Scripture: From the Bible Treasury

Answer: It would appear that what is now called the Wady es-Surat answers to the first famous spot; that Damun may be Ephesdammim; that Socho in this neighborhood is now called Shuweikeh, as is also the other Socho in the mountain district of Judah (Josh. 15:48⁴⁸And in the mountains, Shamir, and Jattir, and Socoh, (Joshua 15:48)), and that the Yarmuck of our day corresponds with Jarmuth of old.
