In 1596, Rammun appeared in Ottoman tax registers as being in the Nahiya of the Liwa of Quds, with a population of 39 Muslim households.
The villagers paid a fixed tax rate of 33.3% on various agricultural products, including wheat, barley, olives, and vines or fruit trees; a total of 5,700  akçe.
Sherds from the early Ottoman era have been also found.

In 1838, Edward Robinson noted Rummon as a Muslim village in the District of Beni Salim, east of Jerusalem, located "on a naked conical point of the ridge, rising steeply on the N[orth] side of the valley, the houses being apparently built in terraces around the hill from the top downwards."

The French explorer Victor Guérin first  visited the village in 1863, and described it as a village with five hundred inhabitants.
He further noted that in the limestone mountain around it were drilled numerous caves, many of which were still used by shepherds and their flocks.
Ancient cisterns dug into the rock were also found.
The houses were partly built with antique materials, including some large blocks cut ashlars.

An Ottoman village list of about 1870 showed that Rammun had 81 houses and a population of 334, though the population count included men only.
The village was described as being in the Beni Salim area.

In the 1882, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine described Rammun as "A village of moderate size, with cisterns and caves, evidently an ancient site.
On the north-east is a deep rockcut tank, and south of it a rock-cut tomb.
The houses stand on a barren conical point of rock north of a rough valley, and are built in terraces.
The site is peculiar, being at the end of a plateau of arable soil extending southwards from Taiyibeh.
The view is extensive towards the south-east, but bounded by the Taiyibeh range on the north.
There are numerous caves in the rocky sides of the hill called Ashkaf Jiljal, as well as further west (Ashkaf Daud)."

In 1896 the population of Rammun was estimated to be about 705 persons.
