History
History
In 1875, in the late Ottoman era, Victor Guérin traveled in the region, and arrived at "A'ddousieh, a small village inhabited by a few Christian families, some Greek united, others Greek schismatics. Several cisterns and tombs dug into the rock in the form of pits indicate that this hamlet succeeded an ancient locality. To the north and at the bottom of the hill where it rises, is an abundant spring, in a valley planted with oranges and pomegranate trees."
