Al-Khayma (Шаблон:Lang-ar) was a Palestinian Arab village in the Ramle Subdistrict of Mandatory Palestine. It was depopulated during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War on July 9, 1948, by the Givati Brigade of Operation An-Far. It was located 18.5 km south of Ramla.
History
In 1863, Victor Guérin found that it had two hundred and fifty inhabitants.[1]
In 1882, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine noted it as principally an adobe village of "on low ground", and with a well to the east.[2]
British Mandate era
In the 1922 census of Palestine, conducted by the British Mandate authorities, Khaimeh had a population of 132 Muslims,[3] increasing in the 1931 census to 141 Muslims, in 30 houses.[4]
In the 1945 statistics, the village had a population of 190, all Muslim,[5] and the total land area was 5,150 dunums.[6] Of this, 4 dunams were irrigated or used for plantations, 5,007 were used for cereals,[7] while 9 dunams were classified as built-up urban areas.[8]
1948 and aftermath
Morris list both date and reason for depopulation as "not known".[9] However, he also notes it in connection with Operation An-Far, in mid July 1948.[10][11]
Following the 1948 war, the area was incorporated into the State of Israel and in August 1948 al-Khaymas was one of 21 Palestinian villages whose land was proposed for resettlement with an Israeli village named Revadim.[12] In November, 1948, the proposal to establish Revadim on al-Khayma's land was passed.[13]
Revadim was eventually established close to village land, according to Morris,[14] however, according to Khalidi, Revadim is located north of al-Khayma, on the land of the depopulated Palestinian village of al-Mukhayzin.[15]
In 1992 the village site was described: "All that remains of the village are three mounds to the east, west, and south of the site that contain the remnants of houses. A girder protrudes from the eastern mound and there is a large, deserted well at the mounds centre. A large artificial pond lies about 100 m northeast of the site, and there is a monument next to a well about 0.5 km to the north. An inscription on the monument reads: To the eMemory of the Members of Kibbutz Revadim, who Settled on the Land in 1948."[16]
