Many refugees from areas captured by Zionist forces in 1947 - 1948 came to Bethlehem, setting up encampments in the north of the city near the road to Jerusalem and on the hillside to the south between the city and Solomon's Pools.
These later became the official refugee camps of Beit Jibrin (or al-'Azza) and 'A'ida (in the north) and Deheisheh in the south.
Bethlehem, Beit Sahour and Beit Jala are currently surrounded by Israeli checkpoints and roadblocks, with the main road to Jerusalem cut off at the burder of Jerusalem's municipal area - at Rachel's Tomb.

Costumes from Beit Dajan were outstanding for their varied techniques, many of which were adopted from other regional styles.

They were put to death by Joshua, who afterwards suspended their bodies upon five trees.
It has been identified with the modern village called Sumeil, standing on a low hill about 7 miles to the northwest of Eleutheropolis (Beit Jibrin), where are ancient remains and a great cave.
