Numbers 32:36

And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities: and folds for sheep.

From Easton's Bible Dictionary

Matthew George Easton, 1897

House of the height; i.e., “mountain-house”, one of the towns of Gad, 3 miles east of Jordan, opposite Jericho (Josh. 13:27). Probably the same as Beth-haran in Num. 32:36. It was called by king Herod, Julias, or Livias, after Livia, the wife of Augustus. It is now called Beit-haran.

From Smith's Bible Dictionary

William Smith, 1884

(house of the height), accurately BETH-HARAM, one of the towns of Gad on the east of Jordan, described as in "the valley," (Joshua 13:27) and no doubt the same place as that named BETH-HARAN in (Numbers 32:36)
