Shihor
shi.chor is a proper geographic name associated with Egypt, waters, harvest, and a territorial boundary.
The term is consistently a proper geographic designation: it marks a boundary in Joshua 13:3 and 1 Chronicles 13:5, while Isaiah 23:3 and Jeremiah 2:18 place it in clauses concerning waters, harvest, and travel toward Egypt.

All four attestations are tagged as a proper noun. In Joshua 13:3 the APB renders a territorial extent beginning “From Shihor,” while 1 Chronicles 13:5 renders Israel's assembly “from Shihor in Egypt.” In Isaiah 23:3 the clause concerns “the seed of Shihor” and “the harvest of the Nile,” and Jeremiah 2:18 speaks of drinking “the waters of Shihor.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name directly as “Shihor” in every cited verse. It places the name in boundary language, in the phrase “Shihor in Egypt,” and in references to its seed and waters.
