Context of Joshua 9:10

8The Hivites said to Joshua, ‘If you agree, we will become your servants.’ Joshua asked them, ‘Who are you? Where do you come from?’ 9They answered, ‘We, your servants, have come from a country that is very far away. We heard about the Lord, who is your God. We have heard about all the things that he did in Egypt. We also heard what he did to the two kings of the Amorites. They ruled cities east of the Jordan: Sihon, king of Heshbon, and Og, king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth. 11Our leaders and all our people told us to come to meet you. Our leaders said, “Take food and drink for your journey. Go to meet them, and say to them, ‘We want to be your servants. Please promise not to fight against us.’ ” 12We have come a very long way. This bread was warm when we put it in our bags on the day that we left home. But see how hard and dry it has become.

It was the capital of the Hivites, and a large important city (Jos 10:2).
