Batn-Ihrît or Batn el-Harit (Arabic: بعزبة بطن إهريت) is a village in the Yousef El Seddik district of Faiyum Governorate in Egypt.

The village is located in an area of archaeological significance, approximately 3 kilometers North-West of Kharabet Ihrit (the ruins of the ancient village of Theadelphia). The archaeological site has in the past also been known as Batn el-Harit or Harit so the village is often mistaken for the archaeological site in literature.[1]
