Sechu:
(the watch‐tower) a place mentioned once only-(1 Samuel 19:22).-apparently as lying on the route between Saul's residence, Gibeah, and Ramah (Ramathaim‐zophim) that of Samuel. It was notorious for "the great well" (or rather cistern) which it contained. Assuming that Saul started from Gibeah (Tuleil el‐Ful) and that Neby Samwil is Ramah, then Bir Nebolla (the well of Neballa) just south of Beeroth, alleged by modern traveler to contain a large pit would be in a suitable position for the great well of Sechu.
