Narran, mentioned in biblical and later Jewish and Christian texts, is a large ruin on the Via Maris. The village was built on a ruin occupying approximately 30 dunams of a natural hill east of a fork in the road running north-east from Benot Ya'aqov bridge-Quneitra-Damascus, and south-east from the same bridge-Khushniyye-Nawa. Near the hill, south-west of the village, stands a khan dating at least from the medieval period, and between the khan and the hill recent surveyors found traces of the ancient road.
