History
[eedit | eedit soorce]Al-Tayba mey be the Tayyibat al-Ism that wis on the leet o lands allocatit bi sultan Baibars tae his amirs in 663 AH (1265-1266 C.E.), aboot thirty year efter the Arab conquest o Palestine. In Mamluk times, the veelage name appeared on documents referrin tae the waqf o the mosque in Hebron.[4]
Unner Ottoman rule, the daftar o 1596 shaw the veelage tae be unner the admeenistration o the nahiya o Shafa. Wi a population o 50 hoosehaulds ("khana"), the indwellers paid cesses on wheat, baurley, fruit, "simmer craps", olives, beehives, an gaits.[5] In the aichteent century, the veelage wis bolstered bi an influx o immigrants frae Egyp an the Arabian Peninsula. In the "Survey of Western Palestine" in the latter pairt o the nineteent century, Tayibe wis descrivit as: "a lairge straggelin veelage on the end o a slope, principally built o stane. It is supplee'd bi cisterns an surroondit wi olives".[6]
In the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, the Israeli forces captured the toun lands, but no the toun itsel. Tayibe wis transferred tae Israel as pairt o the 1949 cease-fire agreement wi Jordan.[2] Accordin tae David Gilmour, the indwellers wur furious that Abdullah I o Jordan haed simply handit them ower tae Israel but wur relieved that thay wur tae be reunitit wi thair land. Housomeivver, the Law o Acquisition o Absentee Property, that wis passed in 1950 but made retroactive, wis specially devised tae tak care o cases lik this. Tho thay hidnae flit frae thair veelage, the indwellers wur declared "absentees" (or Internally Displaced Palestinians) an thair land "abandoned property". Accordin tae the veelagers, thay lost 8,000 o thair 11,000 acre (45 km²).[7]
