History
[edit]Jubbayn was settled in 1921 by the Smathie, a breakaway tribe of the Mawali, a semi-nomadic Bedouin confederation in northwestern and central Syria, who were brought in to cultivate the village lands by the owners, the Baroudi family of Hama city.[2] The village was deserted at the end of the Syrian Civil War due to the displacement of its residents, but many returned in the months that followed.[3]
