According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, the village had a population of 1,958 inhabitants in 2017.[1] The primary health care facilities for the village are designated by the Ministry of Health as level 2.[3]

Location[edit]

History[edit]

Roman period[edit]

See Solomon's Pools for the 39 kilometres (24 mi) long el-Arrub aqueduct built by the Roman prefect[broken anchor] Pontius Pilate.

Mamluk period[edit]

In AH 892 (1487 CE), Qansuh Al Yahyawi, the Mamluk viceroy of Damascus, renewed the water supply from Ain al-Arrub (Arrub Spring).[5]

Late Ottoman period[edit]

In the 1850s, people from Ash Shuyukh settled the area.[6]

In 1883, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described Birket el 'Arrub as: "one of the main reservoirs supplying the aqueduct to Jerusalem. There are two channels, one from Birket Kufin, one from 'Ain Kueiziba, which join [here]."[7]

Jordanian period[edit]

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

The Jordanian census of 1961 found 242 inhabitants in Shuyukh Arrub.[8]

1967 and aftermath[edit]

Since the 1967 Six Day War, Shuyukh al-Arrub has been under Israeli occupation.
