The village was founded on 18 October 1950 by immigrants from Yemen and was named after Simon Bar Giora. Initially a work camp named Eitanim, it became a moshav in 1954. It was established on land belonging to the Arab village of Allar, which was depopulated in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. It is situated northeast of the Allar village site.[2]
