In 3,300 BC, the Canaanite King Jabin founded his kingdom on the lands of al-Jib village, with borders that extended beyond al-Jib’s present boundaries and across those of neighboring villages. The kingdom had two important barns (Judeirahs), one in al-Jdeirah village to the east of al-Jib, and the other in Khirbat al-Jdeirah in today’s Beit Anan village.
