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 'Hanita' in Israel, in both Hebrew and English letters (in transliteration), as well as in Arabic. The meaning of the name 'Hanita' is double: it is both an inflection of the name Hannah and also meansm 'her spear'. A spear is an ancient weapon made of a wooden pole with a metal blade or point at the end. Kibbutz Hanita, located in the Upper Galile, received its name from an ancient settlement by the same name which was mentioned by the Chazal. Every item in Menorah Galleries is accompanied by a lifetime “Certificate of Authenticity” and additional documentation and information regarding the individual artifact and its culture.
