Place in Ramle, Mandatory Palestine
Bayt Shanna was a Palestinian Arab village in the Ramle Subdistrict of Mandatory Palestine . It was depopulated during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War on July 15, 1948, during the second stage of Operation Dani . It was located 11.5 km southeast of Ramla .
Etymology [ edit ]
Bayt šannā /Bēt šanna/ is an Aramaic place-name , which means "House of the Rock" (šn’).[5] 53 ] , "the place of the cat (or ‘of the partridge’)".[5]
History [ edit ]
Ceramics from the Byzantine era have been found here.[6]
Ottoman era [ edit ]
Bayt Shanna was incorporated into the Ottoman Empire in 1517 with all of Palestine .
In 1552, Bayt Shanna was an inhabited village. Haseki Hürrem Sultan , the favourite wife of Suleiman the Magnificent , endowed the tax revenues of Bayt Shanna to her Haseki Sultan Imaret in Jerusalem . Administratively, the village belonged to the Sub-district of Ramla in the District of Gaza .[7]
In 1596, it appeared in the tax registers under the name of Bayt Sanna , as being in the nahiya Ramla , which was under the administration of the liwa Gaza . It had a population of four household;[8] Muslims . They paid a fixed tax-rate of 25% on agricultural products, including wheat, barley, summer crops, vineyards, fruit trees, goats and beehives, in addition to occasional revenues; a total of 1,000 Akçe . All of the revenue went to a Waqf .[8] [9]
In 1838, it was noted as Beit Shinna , a place "in ruins or deserted," in the Ibn Humar area in the District of Er-Ramleh .[10]
In 1883, the PEF 's Survey of Western Palestine Beit Shenna : "Traces of ruins and squared stones."[11]
By the beginning of the 20th century, residents from Beit Surik settled the site, establishing it as a dependency – or satellite village – of their home village.[12]
British Mandate era [ edit ]
In the 1922 census of Palestine , conducted by the British Mandate authorities , Bait Shanna had a population of 8 Muslims,[13] 1931 census , when it was counted together with Salbit , to 406, still all Muslims, in a total of 71 houses.[14]
In the 1945 statistics , the village had a population of 210 Muslims[2] dunams of land.[3] [15] [16]
Bayt Shanna 1942 1:20,000
Bayt Shanna 1945 Scale 1:250,000
1948, and aftermath [ edit ]
Bayt Shanna became depopulated after a military assault on July 15–16, 1948.[4]
As of 1992, there were no Israeli settlement on village land. Sha'alvim , on the land of the depopulated Palestinian village of Salbit is the closest.[9]
In 1992, the village site was described: "The stone rubble of the former houses covers the village site. Large mulberry, olive, and almond trees grow amid the rubble, most of which is covered by wild vegetation. The whole site is fenced in and appears to be used as a grazing area. On the hillside east of the village, a room made of masonry still stands. Fruit trees grow around it."[9]
