Hamor @ he-ass, a Hivite from whom Jacob purchased the plot of ground in which Joseph was afterwards buried Genesis:33:19). He is called "Emmor" in Acts:7:16. His son Shechem founded the city of that name which Simeon and Levi destroyed because of his crime in the matter of Dinah, Jacob's daughter Genesis:34:20). Hamor and Shechem were also slain (ver. 26).
