Giarmata (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈdʒjarmata]; until 1925 Iermata Timișană;[4][5] Hungarian: Temesgyarmat; German: Jahrmarkt) is a commune in Timiș County, Romania.

Traces of a Neolithic settlement and materials of Daco-Roman origin were discovered on the territory of the commune.

During the formation of the Romanian people, on the territory of the commune the native Daco-Roman population continued to live in the form of a village community, and at the beginning of feudalism there was even a fairly strong voivodeship, recorded in the few narrative sources of that time.

The colonization lasted until around 1800 and made Giarmata a strong rural center of the Banat Swabians.

Between 1769–1772, 327 families lived in Giarmata, entirely German settlers, the Romanian and Serbian population being deported in 1765 to Checea and Peterda (today Radojevo, Serbia).
