1 . 'House of Millo,' in connection with Shechem, apparently a family or clan. Judges 9: 6, 20.
2. A part of ancient Jerusalem, though afterwards said to be 'built' by Solomon; it was repaired by Hezekiah. The name always has the article, 'the Millo.' Various sites have been suggested for it, but its locality and its form are unknown. 2 Sam. 5: 9; 1 Kings 9: 15, 24; 1 Kings 11: 27; 1 Chr. 11: 8; 2 Chr. 32: 5. In 2 Kings 12: 20 Joash was
slain in the 'house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla:' this may be another place, though apparently it was in Jerusalem.
