History
Khirbet Tarrama has been suggested as a possible site of the "Jezreel" mentioned as a town in the territory of Judah in the Bible.[3]
Ceramics from the Byzantine era have been found here.[4]
Ottoman era
In 1863, Victor Guérin visited.[5] In 1883, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) noted of Khurbet Terrama: "This ruin, not on the map, was found by Guerin about half an hour north of Khurbet Deir Razi. It was on the top of a terraced hill, and contains the remains of an old fort, with caves cut in the rock, one of which is pierced with columbaria."[6]
British Mandate era
At the time of the 1931 census of Palestine, conducted by the British Mandate authorities, the population of Kh. Tarama was counted under Dura.[7]
Jordanian era
In the wake of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, and after the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Tarrama came under Jordanian rule.
In 1961, there were 161 residents here.[8]
Post-1967
After the Six-Day War in 1967, Tarrama has been under Israeli occupation.
During the 1970s, the Israeli Military unsuccessfully attempted to establish a military air field on Tarrama's lands to serve the al-Majnouna camp.[2]
Most of its inhabitants belong to the Awlad Muhammad extended family,[2] but over 10% were Palestinian refugees in 1997.[9]
The population increased to 404 by 1997.[10]
In 2007, Tarrama had a population of 630, according to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics census.[11]

On y remarque aussi plusieurs cavernes pratiquées dans le roc, une, entre autres, dont les parois sônt percées intérieurement d'une foule de petites niches semblables à des trous de pigeonnier. Ces ruines me sont désignées sous le nom de Khirbet Terrama."
