1948[edit]

In 1948, when Biriyya was depopulated - it was both Palestinian Arab Biriyya depopulated and nearby Palestinian Jewish Biriya depopulated. What is the reason we have two Biriy/yas - one for Arab and one for Jewih? It is the same location name for both, on the spot of the antique Biriya; Were they separate administrative locations in British times? (probably impossible to prove since the last British census was 1945, before permanent Jewish settlement in Biriya/Biriyya).GreyShark (dibra) 19:51, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Greyshark09: There is some incomplete discussion of this at Talk:Birya. The Jewish settlement (which was actually a Palmach post at Birya Fortress, not so near to the Arab village) was abandoned around the same time as the Arab village was depopulated. The official Gazetteer of 1948 lists the Arab village only. Jewish settlement then restarted at the location of the Arab village, but details of this are lacking.
