Context of Joshua 9:10
8They responded to Joshua, “We’re at your mercy.” Joshua asked them, “Who are you, and where did you come from?” 9They answered him, “We came from a country very far away because the Lord your God has become famous. We heard stories about him and everything he did in Egypt. We also heard everything he did to the two kings of the Amorites east of the Jordan, King Sihon of Heshbon and King Og of Bashan in Ashtaroth. 11Our leaders and everyone who lives in our country told us, ‘Take what you need for the trip, and go meet them. Tell them, “We’re at your mercy. Make a treaty with us right now.” ’ 12Our bread was warm when we left home to meet with you. Look at it now! It’s dry and crumbling.

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