Place Description

A historic Palestinian hamlet in the Baysan subdistrict, situated on the north bank of Wadi al-Bira where the wadi emerges from the hills and descends toward the Jordan Valley, approximately 500 meters from the highway leading to Jisr al-Majami and Baysan. Its agricultural landscape was closely tied to the watercourse, whose flow once powered a mill opposite the hamlet, while the surrounding valley and hills supported cultivation and grazing.
