Kafr Saba

The village was depopulated of its Arab residents by Jewish forces on May 13, 1948, one day before the new State of Israel was declared . Presently the remains of the villages consists of two domed shrines located on either side of Route 55 between Kfar Sava and Qalqiliyya . The larger of the two is called Nabi Yamin, situated on the east side. About 40 meters away, on the west side of the road, is a much smaller shrine named Nabi Serakha. The Nabi Yamin shrine was later taken over by an ultra-orthodox Jewish sect. This article uses the term "Palestinian" in the same way that Encyclopedia Britannica uses the term: "Henceforth the term Palestinian will be used when referring to the Arabs of the former mandated Palestine, excluding Israel. Although the Arabs of Palestine had been creating and developing a Palestinian identity for about 200 years, the idea that Palestinians form a distinct people is relatively recent. ... Until the establishment of Israel, the term Palestinian was used by Jews and foreigners to describe the inhabitants of Palestine and had only begun to be used by the Arabs themselves at the turn of the 20th century; at the same time, most saw themselves as part of the larger Arab or Muslim community. ... [A]fter 1948—and even more so after 1967—for Palestinians themselves the term came to signify not only a place of origin but ... a sense of a shared past and future in the form of a Palestinian state" ( [1] , Encyclopaedia Britannica , accessed August 15, 2009).
