History

Khirbat al-Majdal was located on the Crusader place called Megedallum. The site had a well, around which bedouin gradually settled.[1]

The village had a shrine for a local sage known by al-Shaykh Abdallah. Today, Sde Yitzhaq is located near the village lands, but on land belonging to Raml Zayta.[2]
