The basis for this map (in grey), is a map of the Hebron district according to its British
Mandate-era borders (1922-1948).’*° The outer borders of the nahiya as drawn do
not necessarily include villages’ agricultural lands. In 1876 the borders of the Hebron
district exceeded its Mandate-era borders to the north. These “extra-territorial”
villages have been placed by spatial alignment using the 1930s topographical maps
drawn by Mandate-era Commissioner of Lands and Surveys, F.J. Salmon.“
