Lubya (Arabic:لوبيا "bean"), sometimes referred to asLubia,Lubieh andLoubieh, was a Palestinian Arab town located ten kilometers west ofTiberias that was captured and destroyed byIsrael during the1948 Arab-Israeli War where its residents were forcefully evacuated and became refugees. Nearby villages includedNimrin to the north,Hittin to the northwest, andal-Shajara to the south; Each of those villages were also depopulated.[5]

Lubya had a total land area of 39,629dunams (3,963ha), of which 83% was Palestinian-owned and the remainder public property. Most of its cultivable land was planted with cereals while only 1,500 dunams (150 ha) were planted with olive groves. The village's built-up area was 210 dunams (21 ha).[6][7][8]

History

[edit]

Archaeological excavations have revealed remains dating from theRoman era, second century BCE until the fifth century CE.[9][10]

The village was known asLubia by theCrusaders and was a rest stop forSaladin'sAyyubid army prior to theBattle of Hattin.[11][12] It is the birthplace of a prominent 15th centuryMuslim scholar Abu Bakr al-Lubyani, who taught Islamic religious sciences inDamascus.[13]

Ottoman era

[edit]

Lubya belonged to thenahiya ("district") ofTiberias in the 1596tax records, a few decades after theOttoman Empire won control over the region from theMamluks. Its population was recorded as 182 households and 32 bachelors, an estimated 1,177 persons; allMuslim. The village was required to pay taxes on its goats, beehives and its olive press, but most of the revenues (45,000Akçe) were paid as a fixed amount. Total taxes were 46,700akçe.[14][15][16]

In 1743, the Ottoman governor of Damascus,Sulayman Pasha al-Azm died in the village while on his way to confront the rebelliousde facto Arab ruler of theGalilee,Zahir al-Umar.[13] A map byPierre Jacotin, from 1799 showed the place namedLoubia.[17]

Lubya is near the site of Khan Lubya which is filled with the ruins of a pool,cisterns and large building stones. This site was probably acaravansary during medieval times.[13][18]

In the early 19th century,James Silk Buckingham described Lubya as a very large village on top of a high hill.[19]Johann Ludwig Burckhardt, aSwiss traveler toPalestine, referred to the village as "Louby" and noted that wildartichokes covered the village plain.[20][21] The American scholarEdward Robinson, who passed through the village in 1838, noted that it had suffered greatly from theGalilee earthquake of 1837, with 143 villagers reported dead.[22][23]

Mark Twain mentioned it in his 1869 travel book,The Innocents Abroad:We jogged along peacefully over the great caravan route from Damascus to Jerusalem and Egypt, past Lubia and other Syrian hamlets, perched, in the unvarying style, upon the summit of steep mounds and hills, and fenced round about with giant cactuses.[24]

In 1875, the French explorerVictor Guérin visited the village, calledLoubieh, and estimated it had 700 inhabitants.[25] He further noted that: "A house built of cut stones of medium size in the direction of east and west appears to occupy the site, and to be built out of old materials formerly used for a Christian Church".[26]

Later that century, the village was described as being built of stone, on top of alimestone hill. Its population, estimated to be between 400 and 700, cultivatedolive andfig trees.[27]

A population list from about 1887 showedLubieh to have about 2,730 inhabitants; all Muslims.[28]

An elementary school was established in 1895 and remained in use throughout the rule of theBritish Mandate of Palestine from 1923 to 1947.

British Mandate era

[edit]

In the1922 census of Palestine conducted by theBritish Mandate authorities the population was 1,712; 1,705 Muslims, four Christians and three Druze,[29] increasing in the1931 census to 1,850; 1,849 Muslims and one Christian, in a total of 405 houses.[30]During this period, Lubya was the second largest village in the Tiberias District.[15]

According to the Palestine Government's village statistics, Lubya had a population of 2,350 in1945 statistics, all Muslim.[2][6] All the inhabitants were Muslim.[31] The total land area was 39,629dunams.[6] Of this, a total of 1,655 dunams were for plantations and irrigable land, 32,310 for cereals,[7] while a total of 210 dunams were built-up land.[8]

Occupation by Israel

Nakba

At the onset of the1948 Arab-Israeli War Lubya was being defended by local militia volunteers. Village forces constantly skirmished with the Jewish militias which would soon become theIsraeli Army; the first Israeli raid on the village occurred on January 20, 1948, coordinated with one on nearbyTur'an, leaving one Lubya resident dead. On February 24, local militiamen andArab Liberation Army (ALA) members ambushed aJewish convoy on the village's outskirts, causing severalcasualties, including one militiaman.[21] The attack signaled that the Israelis were unable to keep the roads open and that foreign volunteers (the ALA) were taking over the offensive in the easternGalilee.[32]

In early March, Israeli forces attempted to create a route between Tiberias and the village ofShajara, which required attacking Lubya. During the attack militiamen repulsed the Israelis, killing seven and losing six of their own.[13][21]

After Tiberias was occupied by Israel, Lubya turned to the ALA in nearbyNazareth for military support and guidance.[13][21]

In early June, the 14th. battalion from theGolani Brigade was ordered to take Lubya and "to expel its inhabitants". However, the attack failed, due to heavy resistance from the villagers.[33]

The ALA attacked the Jewish town ofSejera on June 10 at the time when a truce was being brokered between Lubya's militiamen and Israeli forces. After the truce expired on July 16, Israel launchedOperation Dekel, capturing Nazareth at the start.[13][21]

After news of Nazareth's fall, the majority of non-combatant village residents fled north towardsLebanon or to nearby Arab towns. The ALA also withdrew, leaving the local militia to confront incoming forces. When a single Israeli armored unit appeared outside the village, the militia retreated and left the village. The few remaining residents reported that Israeli forces subsequently shelled Lubya, demolished a few houses and commandeered many others.[13][21] The village was finally demolished in the 1960s.[34]

The Israeli town ofLavi was built on Lubya's land, northeast of the village site.[15] There are also two parks on the village lands: the Lavi Pine Forest and the South African Park. They are used as picnic grounds for local residents, including former residents of Lubya who areinternally displaced persons living in various existingArab localities in Israel.[21]

In the 1990s, two books were published about Lubya byIbrahim Yahya Al-Shahabi, one under the auspices ofBirzeit University,[35] and one book about Lubya was published in Denmark, in 1995, byMahmoud Issa.[36]

Demographics

[edit]

The village's population rose and dropped dramatically throughout its history; In 1596, Lubya had a population of 1,177 dropping to about 400–700 in the beginning of the 19th century.

The village's residents predominantly adhered toIslam.[21] It was estimated that there was 16,741Palestinian refugees descending from Lubya in 1998.[5] After 1948, the majority of refugees lived at theWavel refugee camp in Lebanon and other places in Lebanon, Jordan and Syria.[37] A few hundred remained in Israel aspresent absentees, living first inKafr Kana.[38] After the departure of thePLO from Lebanon in 1983 and theSabra and Shatila massacres, many Lubya refugees emigrated from Lebanon to Europe. By 2003 about 2,000 lived in Denmark, Sweden and Germany.[37]
