From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Moreh
     an archer, teacher; fruitful. (1.) A Canaanite probably who
     inhabited the district south of Shechem, between Mounts Ebal and
     Gerizim, and gave his name to the "plain" there (Gen. 12:6).
     Here at this "plain," or rather (R.V.) "oak," of Moreh, Abraham
     built his first altar in the land of Palestine; and here the


     Lord appeared unto him. He afterwards left this plain and moved
     southward, and pitched his tent between Bethel on the west and
     Hai on the east (Gen. 12:7, 8).
