History
In the 1596 tax records, it was named as a village, 'Aramta, in the Ottoman nahiya (subdistrict) of Sagif under the liwa' (district) of Safad, with a population of 14 households, all Muslim. The villagers paid a fixed tax-rate of 25% on agricultural products, such as wheat, barley, fruit trees, goats and beehives, in addition to "occasional revenues"; a total of 1,355 akçe.[1][2]
