History
The village was established in March 1949 by six former Palmach soldiers who had been demobilised at the end of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. It was named after the depopulated Palestinian village of al-Malkiyya and after the biblical village of Malkia, which was named after a priestly family[2] from biblical times (Nehemiah 10:4) settling here, on whose lands it was established.
It is located on the land belonging to the depopulated Palestinian villages of Qadas[3] and al-Malkiyya.[4]
