The "Tribe of Dan" is one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descended from Dan, the fifth son of Jacob and Bilhah. This tribe is known for its unique territory, which was located in the northern part of ancient Israel, near the Mediterranean Sea. The Tribe of Dan is often associated with maritime activities and trade. Historically, the Tribe of Dan faced challenges in fully conquering their allotted land, leading some members to migrate northward. They established the city of Dan, which became a significant religious center, especially known for the worship of idols during the period of the Judges.
