Its municipal borders stretch from the border with Israel in the west to boundaries of the city of Dura in the east.[5] It had a population of 2,568 in the 2007 census by the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics.[6] HistoryIn 1883, the Palestine Exploration Fund's Survey of Western Palestine found at Kh. el Kôm "traces of ruins and caves on a white hill-top." It further described it as "rather a large ruin."[7] Khurbet el Murak was described as "caves and two large foundations",[8] while at Beit Makdûm they noted "cisterns, caves, foundations, and walls, apparently an old site."[9]Modern eraAfter the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, the area was under Jordanian rule. The Jordanian census of 1961 found 247 inhabitants in Kaum and 150 in Muwarraq.[10] After the 1967 Six-Day War, the Al-Kum area (together with the rest of the West Bank) has been under Israeli occupation. The modern Al-Kum village was formed as a result of a 1995 merger between the villages of al-Kum, al-Muwarraq, Beit Maqdum and Humsa, with al-Kum being the largest and in the middle of the latter three. Al-Kum and Beit Maqdum were founded sometime in the early 19th century during Ottoman rule in Palestine. Most of the residents of the four villages were migrants from nearby Dura or Palestinian refugees who fled there following the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. The principal families are Rajoub, al-Awawda and al-Sharha. Following the founding of the modern village, a six-member village council was established to administer its affairs and provide some municipal services.[5] The primary health care facilities for the village are at al-Kum designated by the Ministry of Health as level 1. Close by is Deir Sammit where the primary healthcare facilities are at level 2.[11] References1. ^Palmer, 1881, p.
