Shepho was a Horite chief mentioned in 1Ch 1:40 and Gen 36:23. He was the son of Shobal and lived in the land of Seir, which was later inhabited by the Edomites. The Horites were the original inhabitants of Seir before the descendants of Esau (the Edomites) displaced them.

These genealogical records provide insight into the early inhabitants of the region and their leadership.
