Ashteroth Karnaim:

Ashteroth of the two horns, the abode of the Rephaim (Gen 14:5). It may be identified with Ashtaroth preceding; called "Karnaim", i.e., the "two-horned" (the crescent moon). The Samaritan version renders the word by "Sunamein," the present es-Sunamein, 28 miles south of Damascus.

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Ashteroth Karnaim:

(Ashteroth of the two horns or peaks) a place of very great antiquity, the abode of the Rephaim (Genesis 14:5). The name reappears but once, as Carnaim or Carnion (1 Maccabees 5:26; 5:43; 5:44; 2 Maccabees 12:21; 12:26) in "the land of Galaad." It is probably the modern Es‐Sanamein, on the Haj route, about 25 miles south of Damascus.
