History

The town has ancient ruins including foundations of hewn stone and Corinthian columns of basalt.[2]

Yalda was visited by Syrian geographer Yaqut al-Hamawi in the early 13th-century, during Ayyubid rule. He noted that it was "a village lying some 3 miles from Damascus. The final n is sometimes left out, and the name pronounced Yalda."[3]
