In The Bible, the cities of refuge mentioned in the Book of Numbers and Joshua are six in total: Kedesh in Galilee, Shechem in Ephraim, Hebron in Judah, Bezer in the wilderness, Ramoth in Gilead, and Golan in Bashan. These cities served as safe havens for individuals who committed unintentional manslaughter, allowing them to avoid revenge from the victim's family while awaiting trial.
