Junaynah (Arabic: جنينة; also transliterated Jneineh) is a village in central Syria, administratively part of the Hamraa Subdistrict of the Hama District. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Junaynah had a population of 1,388 in the 2004 census.[1] Its inhabitants are predominantly Alawites.

History

In 1890, Junaynah was sold by the partly Bedouin Ma'adid tribe to the Kaylani family, Hama-based notables. By the 1920s or early 1930s, the Hama landowners of Junaynah settled the village with Alawite tenant farmers to cultivate its lands.[2]
