Artuf ((アラビア語:عرتوف )) was a Palestinian village in the Jerusalem foothills depopulated in 1948. It was situated west of Jerusalem on a high plateau, surrounded by plains on the south, east, and west. The village was on a secondary road that linked it to the main road to Jerusalem.〔Khalidi, 1992, p.268〕 ==History== Under the Ottoman Empire, in 1596, Artuf was a village in a ''nahiya'' ("subdistrict") of Ramla, part of Liwa of Gaza with a population of 110. The villagers paid taxes on a number of crops, including wheat, barley and fruit, as well as on goats, beehives and vineyards.〔Hütteroth and Abdulfattah, 1977, p. 152. Quoted in Khalidi, 1992, p. 268〕 In 1863 Victor Guérin found the village to be situated on a small hill, and having 150 inhabitants.〔Guérin, 1869, p. (15 )〕 The Palestine Exploration Fund's ''Survey of Western Palestine'' in 1883 described Artuf as "a small village built on a low hill, with an open valley to the west. There is a pool (''Hufiret Artuf)'' in the valley, whence the village obtains its water. Olive trees occur round the place.〔Conder and Kitchener, 1883, SWP III, p. (22 ). Quoted in Khalidi, 1992, p. 268〕 In 1883, a group of English missionaries purchased land in Artuf to establish an agricultural colony, called Hartuv, for Jews whom they hoped to convert to Christianity. When the settlers refused to convert, the project was abandoned.〔"Remembering Har-Tuv," Avraham B. Rivlin, Special to the ''Jerusalem Post'' 1976〕 It was resettled in 1895,〔 but destroyed in the 1929 riots.〔(Jerusalem-Tel Aviv railway line dedication )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Artuf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
