Mid-20th Century Enamel and Iron Israeli 'Moriya' Street Name Sign
About the Item
Mid-20th century handmade Israeli street name sign. Made of enamel and iron, this street sign was created shortly after the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948. The sign is written in bolt white letters over a dark blue background, alluding to the colors of the national flag of the newly established state.
The sign names the street 'Moriya' in Israel, in both Hebrew and English letters (in transliteration).
The origin of the name 'Moriya' (also spelled Moriah) comes from the Bible, where it is mentioned in the context of Mount Moriah on which the sacrifice of Isaac took place and on which the Temple was built. Mount Moriah is also known as the Temple Mount. Moriah is also a type of plant similar in its shape to the lamp that was lit in the Temple.
