Smith's Bible Dictionary
Admah

(earthy, fortress), one of the "cities of the plain," always coupled with Zeboim. (Genesis 10:19; 14:2,8; 29:23; Hosea 11:8)

ATS Bible Dictionary
Admah

One of the four cities in the plain of Siddim, destroyed by fire from heaven and covered by the Dead Sea, Genesis 14:2; 19:24,25; Hosea 11:8.

Easton's Bible Dictionary
Earth, one of the five cities of the vale of Siddim (Genesis 10:19). It was destroyed along with Sodom and Gomorrah (19:24; Deuteronomy 29:23). It is supposed by some to be the same as the Adam of Joshua 3:16, the name of which still lingers in Damieh, the ford of Jordan. (see ZEBOIM.)
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
ADMAH

ad'-ma ('adhmah): From a root signifying red; one of the Cities of the Plain (Ciccar) (Genesis 10:19; Genesis 14:2, 8 Deuteronomy 29:23 Hosea 11:8) upon which Abraham and Lot looked from the heights of Bethel; destroyed with Sodom and Gomorrah. Conder tentatively identifies it with the City of Adam referred to in Joshua 3:16, and thinks that perhaps the name may be preserved in that of Damieh Ford, near the mouth of the river Jabbok; but that point could not have been in view from Bethel.
