Silla

Smith’s Bible Dictionary (1863)

(a highway). “The house of Millo which goeth down to Silla” was the scene of the murder of King Joash. (2 Kings 12:20) What or where Sills was is entirely matter of conjecture. Some have suggested the pool of Siloam.

Easton’s Bible Dictionary (1897)

A highway; a twig, only in 2 Kings 12:20. If taken as a proper name (as in the LXX. and other versions), the locality is unknown.
