Halamish (Template:Lang-he-n. lit. Flint), also known as Neveh Tzuf (Template:Lang-he, lit. Nectar Home), is a communal Israeli settlement in the West Bank created in 1977. Located to the north of Modi'in, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. In 2007 it had a population of 956.
History
On 16 October 1977, two gar'ins, one religious (Neveh Tzuf) and one secular (Neveh Tzelah), each with 25 families moved into the police station near Nabi Salih. After two months of harsh living conditions and after the murder of a member of the group, the non-religious group abandoned. The attrition and conditions also affected the religious group and over the following 40 months, only seven of the original settlers remained.
The original name of the colony, Neveh Tzuf, was rejected by the government naming committee by giving the rationale that it might be misleading the public since the biblical location, Eretz Tzuf, was elsewhere. The naming committee instead gave the new colony the official name 'Halamish', and since this was rejected by the families, both names are still used for the village.
Protest
The residents of the nearby village of Nabi Salih have protested the confiscation of their land by the people of Halamish.
