The village by this name mentioned in the Onomasticon is probably represented by the present ruined site Khurbet Surek, lying one and a half miles north of Wady Sutrar, and the same distance west of Surah (Zorah). It contains "traces of a ruined village, springs, with a rock-cut wine-press, and cave to the west, and a sacred tree " (Memoirs to the Ordnance Survey, 3:126).
