Description
Who was Achsah?
Achsah is briefly mentioned in 1Ch.2.49 as the daughter of Caleb, the son of Hur. This Caleb is not the same person as Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, who appears in the conquest narratives of Joshua and Judges. The genealogy in 1Chronicles 2 focuses on the descendants of Judah, particularly the lineage of Hur, who was the son of Caleb, the son of Hezron.
No further information is provided about Achsah, her life, or any significant events associated with her. Her mention in the genealogy serves to document the family line of Caleb, the son of Hur, and the descendants of Judah.
Relations
Direct connections
Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.

Places
Where this happens
A person is placed by the events they take part in, and an event has to clear three things to place them: it must say where it happened, that place must be one the gazetteer can put a coordinate on, and the verse must report it rather than foretell, command or ask it. Nothing anchored here clears all three. Where the text names a setting no gazetteer surveys — a vineyard, a palace, a plot of ground — it is left off rather than guessed at; where a place is named only in a prophecy, the map does not draw what was said to be coming as though it had happened; and a place reached only through a relation is not inherited, because standing beside somebody is not being somewhere.
No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.

The pattern
Where Achsah is named
Every book of the corpus in the order it is read, each as wide as the chapters it holds. A bar is the verses of that book which write the name, and the flat stretches are as much of the answer as the bars.
1 verse across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere. Named in 1 Chronicles (1).
