HaYogev (Template:Lang-he-n, lit. The Farmer) is a moshav in northern Israel. Located around seven kilometres west of Afula, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 833.[1]
History
The moshav was founded in 1949 by a youth group from Austria, Germany, Romania and Israel who were members of the Beit Eshel kibbutz, which was destroyed during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.[2] It was established partly on land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village of Khirbat Lid.[3]
In September–October 2012, a trial excavation was conducted at Einot Nisanit,[4] near HaYogev Junction. In a regional survey carried out in the area, Raban reported the presence of tombs in and around the site that date to the Middle Bronze, Iron, Persian, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman periods.[5] In this site a well from the Neolithic period was discovered.[6]
