History
According to the 1594 Tahrir Defter of the Hama Sanjak, the village of Kafr Amim had a population of 6 households and 1 bachelor. On the prior two defter records (taken in 1526 and 1551), the village had been listed as a mezra’a, indicating that while the settlement had no permeant residents its lands were still under cultivation by residents of neighboring villages.[2][3]
