Where is Bezek?

Judges 1:4 (ESV)

4 Then Judah went up and the LORD gave the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, and they defeated 10,000 of them at Bezek.

This is located a few miles northwest of Jerusalem. It ought not to be confused with the Bezek in 1 Samuel 11:8, which was far to the north of Jerusalem.
