History


The moshav was founded on 8 April 1958 by immigrants from Iran and by Cochin Jews from Kochi, being the chief ethnic constituent, and was initially named Adulam 9. It was later renamed after Aviezer Zigmond Gestetner, a former president of the Jewish National Fund in the United Kingdom. It was established on land belonging to the depopulated Palestinian village of Bayt Nattif.[2] Today, the site of Aviezer lies within the "green-line" of the 1949 Armistice Agreements.[3]
