The Diaries of Fandi Mhanna, Buqei'a- Upper Galilee, 1951-1952
This 125-page document shows the diaries of Fandi Mhanna from Buqei'a- Upper Galilee for 1951-1952 inside an agenda, where he wrote about his daily life and several poetry verses. Mhanna mentioned his family in this agenda, pointing out how he spent his days at Buqei'a including participating in different social events like how he and the Sheikhs of neighbouring villages solved issues in the area, as well as going to Prophet Sabalan's Tomb, which people flock to practice their religious rites. He also talked about his direct connection to the land, as he constantly weeded it out, planted it and took care of it, in addition to writing down some financial accounts including his debt, his market's accounts, the olive harvest product and his accounts with his partners at the olive press. He pointed out his role in the department of supplies, where he received aid and distributed it to those who deserved it.
