Easton's Bible Dictionary

Admah:

earth, one of the five cities of the vale of Siddim (Gen 10:19). It was destroyed along with Sodom and Gomorrah (19:24; Deu 29:23). It is supposed by some to be the same as the Adam of Jos 3:16, the name of which still lingers in Damieh, the ford of Jordan. (See ZEBOIM.)

Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary

Admah:

earthy; red; bloody

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Admah:

ad'-ma ('adhmah): From a root signifying red; one of the Cities of the Plain (Ciccar) (Ge 10:19; 14:2,8; De 29:23; Ho 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 Jos 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.

See VALE OF SIDDIM

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Admah:

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