SANSANNAH săn săn’ ə (סַנְסַנָּֽה, date stalk). A town in the Negev of Judah (Josh 15:31); location uncertain. Comparison with other name lists has led to identification with Hazar-susah (19:5) and Hazar-susim (1 Chron 4:31), but these identifications are not certain. Modern Khirbet esh-Shamsānīyāt, fifteen m. N of Beer-sheba is a possible location.
