Jennata ( Arabic: جناتا) is a local authority in Southern Lebanon, located in Tyre District, Governorate of South Lebanon.
According to E. H. Palmer, the name comes from Jennat, garden. [1]
In 1875, Victor Guérin found the village, (which he called Djennateh), to have 60 Metawileh inhabitants. [2] He further noted: "The village contains a number of ruined houses. A little mosque is partly built of ancient materials." [3]
In 1881, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) described it: "A small village of stone and mud, containing about 100 Moslems. […] It lies low, on arable land. The water is supplied by two wells in the village." [4]
