Timrat (Hebrew: תִּמְרַת, lit. 'Date') is a community settlement in northern Israel. Located in the Lower Galilee near Nahalal, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In 2023 it had a population of 1,410.[1]
History
[edit | edit source]The village was established in 1981, though the site had previously been the location of kibbutz Timorim, which was established in 1948, but moved to the centre of the country in 1954 due to a shortage of land.[2] Timorim had been established on the land of the depopulated Arab village of Ma'alul.[3][4]
Archaeology
[edit | edit source]A Hebrew inscription with the word Shabbat (שַׁבָּת) was discovered west of Timrat by a casual hiker. This finding suggests a potential marking of the Sabbath boundary for a nearby town.[5]
Residents
[edit | edit source]Timrat has over 400 families and over 2,000 residents (home owners and renters). Most of them work outside of Timrat.
