Its population in 1945 was 770. The [[Crusaders]] referred to it as "Myary". By the 19th century, during [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] rule, it was a large [[Muslim]] village. The village was a center of Palestinian Arab rebel operations during the [[1936โ39 Arab revolt in Palestine]] against British rule and consequently the village was completely dynamited by the British. Mi'ar was later restored, but it was depopulated by [[Israel]]i forces during the [[1948 Arab-Israeli War]]. The Jewish communities of [[Atzmon]], [[Ya'ad (moshav)|Ya'ad]] and [[Manof]] are located on former village land.
