Afika
Apraksts
Pilsēta Ašera daļā [Joz 13:4 ]. Iedzīvotāji netika izraidīti no Ašera, un nav teikts, ka viņi kļuva par nodevu maksātājiem [Sog 1:31 ]. Šajā fragmentā tas ir rakstīts kā 'aphiq (ebreju valodā). Tas varētu būt pārstāvēts ar 'Afqa uz Nahr Ibrahim, lai gan tas, iespējams, ir tālāk uz ziemeļiem, nekā mēs varētu gaidīt.
