The city of Tulkarm is one of the cities where ancient civilizations originated. According to the excavations that took place in the northern part of the village, remains were revealed of the Kalkolit civilization, the Bronze Stone Age and the early Bronze Ages. This means that the old buildings found were built more than four thousand years BC. Many stone tools were found in the site such as knives, scrapers, etc., and other ruins belonging to the different Bronze Ages. These ruins remained largely unprotected under the Israeli Occupation.
