Guerin edit

There is a "Kharbet A'rara" on pages 156-7 of Guerin Samarie II, but I'm not sure it is the right place. Zerotalk 01:18, 18 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

No, it is not the same. This "Kharbet A'rara" is SW of Kafr ad-Dik, on SWP map 14, Cheers, Huldra (talk) 16:26, 17 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Robinson edit

This reference:

  • Robinson, Edward; Smith, Eli (1841). Biblical Researches in Palestine, Mount Sinai and Arabia Petraea: A Journal of Travels in the year 1838. Vol. 2. Boston: Crocker & Brewster. ( p.618 )

...is taken from Petersen, 2001. However, that is about an Ar'ara between Nabi Musa and Hebron, on the West Bank; which is clearly not this place. Removing it. Huldra (talk) 21:17, 4 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Zertal, III edit

Zertal, 2016, p. 132 writes that the 1596 Hütteroth and Abdulfattah data gives 8 bachelors. I rechecked: it does not. Hütteroth and Abdulfattah gives 8 household (hana), not 8 bachelors. Huldra (talk) 20:20, 26 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
