history
The village was founded in 1952 by HaPo'el haMisrachi members who emigrated from Habban District in southeastern Yemen . It was originally named as Kfar Halutzim ("village of the trailblazers") and later as Tirat Jehuda Bet (after the neighboring town of Tirat Jehuda ) before it took its current name. Like the neighboring villages of Nofech , Schoham , Leschem and Ahlama (the former name of Beit Arif ), the name refers to one of the 12 gems of the Choschen , the breast pocket that belonged to the robes of the Jewish high priest (Exodus 28:17).
The moshav Bareket is located on the territory of the former Palestinian village of Al-Tira , which was depopulated by Israel in 1948.
