Shatta
Shatta (Arabic: شطّة ), also spelled Shutta, was a Palestinian village in Beth Shaan Valley, north-west of the city of Bisan. During the British Mandate period, it was replaced by Kibbutz Beit HaShita.
Ceramics and coins from the Byzantine era were found in the region of Shatta.
During the Ottoman period, the village named Shatta. Karmon, a geographer, suggested that Shutta was marked on the map Pierre Jacotin compiled in 1799, misnamed as Naim.
While travelling in the region in 1838, Edward Robinson noted Shutta as a village in the general area of Tamra, while during his travels in 1852 he noted it as being a village north of the Jalud.
When Victor Guérin visited in 1870, he found here "a good many silos cut in the ground and serving as underground granaries to the families of the village", and "The women have to go for water to the canal of 'Ain Jalud – marked on the map as the Wady Jalud."
In 1870/1871 (1288 AH), an Ottoman census listed the village in the nahiya (sub-district) of Shafa al-Shamali.
In 1881, the Palestine Exploration Fund's Survey of Western Palestine described Shutta as a small adobe village on rising ground, surrounded by hedges of prickly pear and plough-land.
In the 1922 census of Palestine, Shutta had a population of 280; 277 Muslims and 3 Orthodox Christians, decreasing in the 1931 census to 255; 2 Jews, 3 Christians and 250 Muslims, in a total of 85 houses.
