Atad
From Jewish Encyclopedia (1906) Atad:
A place on the eastern side of the Jordan where Jacob's funeral cortège stopped and mourned for him (Gen. l. 10, 11). Tradition (Gen. ib. ) assigns to this circumstance the change in the name of the place to Abel Mizraim , "mourning of Egypt," though in reality the element "Abel" signifies "meadow."
