Barish (Template:Lang-ar) is a local authority in Southern Lebanon, located in Tyre District, Governorate of South Lebanon.
Name
Anis Freiha said that the origin of her name is Syriac: “The house of the chief and the lieutenant colonel, and he mentioned that there is another possibility that it is from the Hebrew bero ?sh: cypress, and in the Aramaic bero ?sh, and in the Syriac.” [1]
History
In 1875, Victor Guérin found the village, (which he called Djennateh), to have 60 Metawileh inhabitants.[2] He further noted: "The village contains a number of ruined houses. A little mosque is partly built of ancient materials."[3]
In 1881, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described it: "A small village of stone and mud, containing about 100 Moslems. […] It lies low, on arable land. The water is supplied by two wells in the village."[4]
