Jalamah (Arabic: جلمه) or Jalameh is a Palestinian village in the West Bank, located 5 km north of the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank. According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, the town had a population of 2,304 inhabitants in mid-year 2006 and 2,268 in 2017.^[1]^[3]

History

It has been suggested that this was Jiliimna in the list of places conquered by Thutmose III.^[4]

Ceramics from the Byzantine era have been found here.^[5]

Ottoman era

Jalamah, like the rest of Palestine, was incorporated into the Ottoman Empire in 1517. During the 16th and 17th centuries, Jalama belonged to the Turabay Emirate (1517-1683), which encompassed also the Jezreel Valley, Haifa, Jenin, Beit She'an Valley, northern Jabal Nablus, Bilad al-Ruha/Ramot Menashe, and the northern part of the Sharon plain.^[6]^[7]

In the census of 1596, Jalama appeared as Jalama, located in the nahiya of Sara in the liwa of Lajjun. It had a population of 16 households, all Muslim. They paid a fixed tax rate of 25% on agricultural products, including wheat, barley, summer crops, goats and beehives, in addition to occasional revenues; a total of 8,000 akçe.^[8]

In 1838, it was noted as a village in the Jenin district.^[9]^[10]

In 1870, Victor Guérin noted the village on a hill, which sides had cisterns carved into rock and silos. He estimated the village to have 200 inhabitants, and also noted a kubbeh for a local saint.^[11]

In 1870/1871 (1288 AH), an Ottoman census listed the village in the nahiya (sub-district) of Shafa al-Qibly.^[12]

In 1882, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described Jelameh as: "Resembles Jabbul. It stands in the plain, surrounded with arable land, and is supplied by cisterns. It has a kubbeh on the north side."^[13]

British Mandate era

In the 1922 census of Palestine, conducted by the British Mandate authorities, Jalameh had a population of 261; 253 Muslims and 8 Christians,^[14] where the Christians were all Orthodox.^[15] The population increased in the 1931 census to 304; 300 Muslims and 4 Christians, in a total of 68 houses.^[16]

In the 1944/5 statistics the population of Jalama was 460, all Muslims,^[17] with 5,827 dunams of land, according to an official land and population survey.^[18] Of this, 86 dunams were used for plantations and irrigable land, 4,777 for cereals,^[19] while 15 dunams were built-up (urban) land.^[20]

Jordanian era

In the wake of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, and after the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Jalamah came under Jordanian rule.

The Jordanian census of 1961 found 784 inhabitants here.^[21]

Post-1967

Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Jalamah has been under Israeli occupation.

On 14 September 2022, 2 Palestinians and 1 Israeli soldier were killed in a shootout at an Israeli military checkpoint on the border with the West Bank.^[22]
