Municipality type D in Jenin, State of Palestine
Al-Attara (Arabic : العطارة ) is a Palestinian village in the Jenin Governorate of Palestine , in the northwestern area of the West Bank , located 15 kilometers southwest of Jenin . According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics , the village had a population of 1,072 inhabitants in mid-year 2006 and 1,244 by 2017.[1] [3]
History [ edit ]
Pottery sherds from the late Roman , Byzantine and early Islamic periods have been found here.[4]
According to SWP : "This place is mentioned in the Onomasticon (s. v. Atharoth ) as a city of Ephraim , north of Sebaste , and 4 miles from it. The distance is exact."[5]
In Crusader sources it was called Lathara .[4]
In 1140, Ussama , a Moslem traveller, mentioned Al-Attara together with nearby Silat ad-Dhahr .[4]
In 1178, it was attacked by Bedouin , but withstood the attack.[4]
Ottoman era [ edit ]
Al-Attara, like all of Palestine , was incorporated into the Ottoman Empire in 1517. About 10% of the pottery sherds found in the village date back to this period.[4] In the 1596 Ottoman tax registers , Al-Attara was listed as an entirely Muslim village called 'Attara , and had a population of 12 families and 2 bachelors. It was located in the nahiya of Jabal Sami in the liwa of Nablus . The inhabitants paid a fixed tax rate of 33,3% on agricultural products, including wheat, barley, summer crops, olive trees, and goats and/or beehives, in addition to occasional revenues and a tax on people from the Nablus area, a total of 5,000 akçe .[6]
A fortress, dating from the 16th—17th century, is visible in the centre of the village.[4]
In 1870, Victor Guérin noted it as a poor village, but one which had succeeded an ancient place.[7]
In 1870/1871 (1288 AH ), an Ottoman census listed the village in the nahiya (sub-district) of al-Sha'rawiyya al-Gharbiyya.[8]
In 1882, the PEF 's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described Al-Attara as "A small stone village on a spur of mountain, with a few olives and a well on the west."[5]
British Mandate era [ edit ]
In the 1922 census of Palestine conducted by the British Mandate authorities , Al-Attara had a population of 164 Muslims,[9] increasing in the 1931 census to 193 Muslims, in 51 houses.[10]
In the 1945 statistics , the population of Al-Attara was 250 Muslims,[11] with 3,844 dunams of land according to an official land and population survey.[12] Of this, 88 dunams were plantations and irrigable land, 1,784 were used for cereals,[13] while 5 dunams were built-up (urban) land.[14]
Jordanian era [ edit ]
After the 1948 Arab–Israeli War and the 1949 Armistice Agreements , Al-Attara came under Jordanian rule .
The Jordanian census of 1961 found 388 inhabitants in Al-Attara.[15]
Post-1967 [ edit ]
Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Al-Attara has been under Israeli occupation .
