Kafr El Battikh (Arabic: كفر البطيخ) is a city in the Damietta Governorate, Egypt. Its population was estimated at 44,700 people in 2018.^[1]

History

The older name of the town was Bura (Arabic: بوره), which comes from a Coptic name for grey mullet (Coptic: ⲫⲟⲣⲓ, romanized: phori).^[2]^[3]

The city was an important fishing town and got a new name when its production changed to watermelons in the Ottoman times. Yaqut mentions, aside from the fish, turbans as its other claim to fame. Bura was for a short time captured by the Crusaders in 1213.^[3]
