The school, built in 1947, had 47 students. All the villagers were of the Muslim faith, and they made their living by agriculture and the raising of livestock. In 1944-45 a total of 4,066 dunums was allocated to the cultivation of cereals, while 16 dunums were irrigated or used for orchards. The village's drinking water came from a local well. The population numbered 406 in 1931, living in 71 houses. Salbit was listed as one of the villages in the Jerusalem District of British Mandate Palestine and the population figure included the inhabitants of Bayt Shanna. In 1944-45 the population was estimated at 510.[8][9] 1948 war and aftermath During the 1948 Arab-Israeli war and the exodus from Lydda and Ramla, some of those forcibly expelled were bussed to Latrun on the front lines and from there ordered to walk northward to Salbit.[10] The Lydda Death March, as it came to be known, brought hundreds of refugee families to Salbit where they took shelter in a fig grove and were given water and rest for the night before trucks from the Arab Legion began moving some of the families to a Palestinian refugee camp in Ramallah.[10] Salbit itself was depopulated after a military assault by Israeli forces on 15–16 July 1948.[3] After its depopulation, Israeli forces headed by Yigal Allon used it as a base from which to launch an attack on the strategic hill of Latrun on 18 July, which was spurned by the forces of the Arab Legion who managed to hold onto the site without inflicting any casualties on the Israeli forces.[11] The village structures of Salbit were subsequently completely destroyed, and according to Walid Khalidi, all that remains of the village today are "some cactus plants and shrubs."[4] The estimated number of Palestinian refugees from Salbit as of 1998 was 3,633.[4] The kibbutz of Shaalvim, named per the site's biblical place name, was constructed on the former village lands on 13 August 1951 by a Nahal group from the Ezra movement. Archaeological excavations In 1949, archaeologists excavated the remains of a Samaritan synagogue there that was dated to the late 4th or early 5th century.[12] Measuring 15.4 x 8 metres, its mosaic floor contains one Greek inscriptions and two in Samaritan.[12] In the centre of the mosaic is a mountain which is thought to be a depiction of Mount Gerizim, a place holy to Samaritans.[12] Rectangular in shape, the synagogue was longitudinally aligned more or less with Mount Gerizim.[13] See also List of Arab towns and villages depopulated during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War References ^ Taylor, 1993, p. 68. ^ a b c Smith, 1857, p. 972. ^ a b c Morris, 2004, p. xix village #239.
