History
The moshav was founded in 1926 by workers from Petah Tikva who were children of middle class immigrants of the Fourth Aliyah. It was initially called HaTehiya (Template:Langx, lit. Revival), but later took the Biblical name[1] of Template:Ill, a Levite town in the land of the Tribe of Dan which is mentioned in Joshua 19:45. The Biblical town is "identified with Tel Gerisa"[2] near the Yarkon river in the north of Tel Aviv by the archaeologist Benjamin Mazar. According to the 1931 census Gat Rimon had a population of 142 Jews, in 30 houses.[3]
