Miss editing a lot, but time & focus are scant. If people start building this I will pitch up what I can. Tiamut^talk 18:45, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Also should mention that I'm not sure if Beit Sakariya is more common than Khallet Zakariya (another possible spelling) or if one of the other names above is more prevalent. The news article on the home demolitions alerted me to the fact that there is no article on this village at Wikipedia. Also not sure what its relationship to Az-Zakariyya and Khirbat az-Zakariyya is, if any. Tiamut^talk 18:57, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

It is in Bethlehem district, pretty sure it is there as the red-linked "Khallet Sakariya"; adding sources below, Huldra (talk) 21:38, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Is this 116/118? I see Guerin, Judee III, pp. 316-319. And some more in Tsafrir. Zero^talk 01:57, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

You mean 160/118?

Oops, yes. Zero^talk 00:00, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Kh. Beit Skaria on SWP 17 (just S of Nahalin, NE of Khirbet Safa (on SWP 21) (btw, Khirbet Safa is strange: large on SWP 21, tiny in the 1940s maps.)

SWP III, p. 108, Palmer p. 302

The 1942 1:20,000 map at 1617/1189 shows shrine "En Nabi Zakariya" but no other building. However there are substantial village lands with a few other small places. Zero^talk 11:34, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
