Fardisya
Fardisya was a Palestinian Arab hamlet in the Tulkarm Subdistrict, 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) south of Tulkarm.
It was depopulated during the 1947–48 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine on April 1, 1948, under Operation Coastal Clearing, and was mostly destroyed with the exception of a single deserted house.
The village was home to the Desuqi family, descendants of Ibrahim al-Desuqi, an Egyptian Sufi leader who lived in Desouk, Egypt during the 13th century and founded the Desuqiyya order. His descendants migrated to Palestine in 1780, and two of them settled at Fardisya. The Desuqi family are their descendants.
Today the area where the village stood been subsumed into the Arab-Israeli town of Tayibe. The Desuqi family today lives in Taybeh.
Achaelological excavations have recovered ceramics from the Iron Age (c. tenth century BCE), and a sarcophagus from the Roman era.
The Crusaders referred to Fardisya as Phardesi. In 1207–08 the Hospitallers received from Lady Juliana of Caesarea the villages of Pharaon (Far´un) and Seingibis (Khirbat Nisf Jubail); Phardesi marked the southern boundary of these lands.
In 1265, Fardisya was among the villages and estates sultan Baibars allocated to his emirs after he had expelled the Crusaders, with the whole of Fardisya given to his emir Saif al-Din Baidaghan al-Rukni.
Potsherds from the Mamluk era have also been found here.
