The word "Cabbon" is spelled with a hard "C" and double "B," pronounced as /ˈkæbɒn/ in IPA phonetic transcription. The second "B" is crucial to the spelling of the word and differentiates it from the word "Carbon." It is an archaic Hebrew term that appears in the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Joshua 15:40 as a place name. The meaning of the word is uncertain, but it is believed to refer to a hilly area southwest of Jerusalem.
