History edit

Al-Mughayyir was established by shepehrds from Deir Jarir and from Marj Ibn Amer, probably around the mid-19th century, around an old ruin.[4]

In 1882, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine described the village as "a small place on a rocky hill top. The water supply is by means of rain water cisterns. The houses are of stone and mud."[5]

British Mandate era edit

In the 1922 census of Palestine conducted by the British Mandate authorities, Mughair had a population 94 Muslims,[6] increasing in the 1931 census to 156 Muslim, in a total of 31 houses.[7]

In the 1945 statistics the population was 220 Muslims,[8] with a total of 18,049 dunams of land, according to an official land and population survey.[9] Of this, 711 dunams were used for plantations and irrigable land, 5,487 dunams were for cereals,[10] while a total of 6 dunams were built-up, urban land.[11]

Jordanian era edit

In the wake of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, and after the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Al-Mughayyir came under Jordanian rule.

In 1961, the population was 390.[12]

Post-1967 edit

Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Al-Mughayyir has been under Israeli occupation.
