Kafr Yasif (; (アラビア語:كفر ياسيف), ''Kufr Yaseef'') is an Arab town in the North District of Israel. It is located northeast of the city of Acre and adjacent to Abu Sinan. The population of Kafr Yasif is largely Christian (57%) with a significant Muslim minority (40%), and a small Druze community.〔 ==History== Many ancient remains have been excavated at Kafr Yasif, including mosaic floors, Corinthian columns, and cisterns cut in rock.〔Dauphin, 1988, p. 638-9〕 Kafr Yasif appears in the writings of the Roman Jewish historian Josephus Flavius. During the Crusader -era in Palestine, it was known as ''Cafresi'', ''Cafriasif,''〔Pringle, 1997, p. ( 119 )〕 or ''Cafriasim''.〔Conder, 1890, p. (31 )〕 In 1193, Queen Isabella I and her spouse Henry of Champagne granted the ''casale'' of Kafr Yasif to prior Heinrich of the Teutonic Knights.〔Strehlke, 1869, p. ( 25 ), No. 29; Cited in Röhricht, 1893, RRH, p. ( 190 ), No. 710; Cited in Pringle, 2009, p. ( 132 )〕 In the 13th century it was inhabited by Christians and paid tithes to the Bishop of Acre.〔Ellenblum, 2003, p. ( 149 )〕 In 1257 Kafr Yasif appears in a document relating to a disagreement between the Bishop of Acre and the Teutonic Knights about its income.〔Strehlke, 1869, pp. ( 91 )-94, No. 112; Cited in Röhricht, 1893, RRH, p. ( 331 ), No. 1260; Cited in Ellenblum, 2003, p. ( 146 )〕 At one point it was a ''casale'' of the Knights Hospitallers.〔 It was described as part of the domain of the Crusaders during the ''hudna'' ("truce") between the Crusaders based in Acre and the Mamluk sultan al-Mansur Qalawun in 1283. No Crusader remains have yet been identified in the village.〔 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「Kafr Yasif」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
