100 Years of Settlements Bronze Israel Medal 98g Zionism

Description: 100 Years of Settlements State Medal, 5742-1982 Palestine was never without Jewish inhabitants, but the years 5642-5643, 1882-1883 marked a turning point in the story of the revival of the land. These years may have been decisive as far as the future was concerned. These were the years when Jews came in groups, they spread out into the desolate land which had not a road, they laid the foundations of the following settlements: Rosh Pinah, Rishon le Zion, Zichron Ya'akov, Petah Tikva, Ness Ziona and Yesod Hamaalah. Unknowingly these pioneers were fixing the border lines for the future state. These early settlements, spread all over the country, were fortunate enough to have the Baron de Rothschild join the revival effort. He was motivated by the feeling that, as he put it - 'There is a need to establish facts in the land". Obverse: A map of Palestine made up of flowers. The inscription: " 100 Years of Settlement" in Hebrew and English. The years "5642-5742, 1882-1982" and the verse: "And I will plant them upon their land" - Amos 9:1 5, in Hebrew and English.
