As Electronic Jewish Encyclopedia wrote, most Aliyah Yemenite Jews began in 1881 and lasted until the First World War.
With the proclamation of the State Israel is covered by the enthusiasm of the Jews of Yemen on foot moved to Aden, where they delivered planes to Israel. This operation came to be known as "Magic Carpet" (or "On Eagles' Wings"). A little more than a year (June 1949 - September 1950) arrived in Israel about 49 thousand Yemenite Jews. Originally
Yemeni Jews have settled only in Jerusalem, where in 1908 they lived about 2,5 thousand, most of them were employed in construction work in quarries and various crafts. A small group of Yemenite Jews (80 families) to 1903 settled in Jaffa. Since 1908 began the resettlement of Yemeni Jews to agricultural settlements (Rehovot, Rishon Lezion, Petach Tikva, Hadera, Zichron Ya'akov, and others). They mostly worked by hired agricultural workers from Jewish owners. By the end of World War I in Palestine there were about 4,5 thousands of Yemeni Jews to the beginning of the Second World War - about 28 thousand, and by 1947 - about 35 thousand.



So over time there was formed a small community yemenitov. Unfortunately, they had very limited material means that did not allow them either to buy a home or build new ones. It was only thanks to the help of Aaron Shalusha, who proposed the Yemeni community is one of the sites belonging to him land for practically nothing, Yemenis have been able in 1896 to begin construction of its district.

Quarter, named Mahane Judas is between today Alroi streets and lanes of Neve Shalom. Next to this quarter were located abandoned vineyards, so that when the years an expanding quarter was the "win" in the land of vineyards, this area received a new name - Kerem Ha-Taimanov (Vineyard yemenitov).

first home Mahane Judas built without planning, among them nebylo streets, and in the houses themselves, according to eyewitnesses, often apart the walls and roof nebylo nothing more - No sex, no ceilings. Shifting in his quarter of the usual for them lifestyles yemenity lived fairly close.

And now is not enough space on the streets would be.



Lack of space is compensated riot of colors. Sometimes homes plastered well in such exotic colors that immediately reminded of a saying - Every hunter wants to know where sits carp science knows a lot gitik







the beginning of World War II lived in the neighborhood already More than 40 families had their own market, a bakery, a synagogue, a place sluzhivschaya meetings and conventions. Quarter grew slowly, reaching segodnyaschnih streets Shabazz and Metula. However, now Olim from Yemen had the choice, and they settled in the young city of Tel Aviv, although bolshintvo still try to settle in the Mahane Judas. This led to an unusual affliction. In 1922, a quarter lived 289 people at the highest in Tel Aviv, the population density.

Since the walk was carried out in the Sabbath, the streets was formless and empty.

In 1913 Arthur Rupin, chairman of "Eretz Israel" bought land from Arabs to close from Jaffa. In the same 1913m, he traveled to Russia with the purpose of selling these sites to Jews. Plots were divided into allotments, shall suffice for the construction of a house of average size. These allotments were sold to ... 1000 rubles (one thousand). Some of the buyers thought it was the contribution of money, some people - thought it was charity, not even dreaming of ever coming to Palestine. But the revolution of 1917 changed not only the political structure of Russia. Dozens of Jewish families were forced to up from their homes and move to the "land of fathers", or having at nothing but the deed was signed by Arthur Rupinym paper on land nobody knows Tel-Aviv. These "Olim Hadashim, nicknamed" Rupina refugees' arrival in Tel Aviv, were pleasantly surprised to find that piece of paper that they are so intimately hid turns out to really have value. True, there were only sites located between Allenby Street and the sea. Majority of people chose to settle in Jerusalem, but dozens of families began to build their houses on their own sites. To the chagrin of new settlers - work in Palestine was very small, Yes, and age of the majority of them are no longer allowed them to work in the field or on the site. And a large group of new settlers joined in the fruit and vegetable exchange. They asked the mayor Meir Dizengoff, and he allowed them to open shop (tavern) for trade in fruits and vegetables, and various household goods directly next to their houses, located along the streets of Ha-Carmel.
In 1920 Ha-Carmel street and adjacent to it were declared the first urban market, has received the name of the street name. For many years the market (Shuk) Caramel and survived the war and massacres, and terrorist acts. But today he is a favorite shopping places in Tel avivtsev and guests. And many come here just to watch.
In 1974, before the holiday of Passover (Jewish) first Caramel Market his story has been closed for several days to repair. His cleaned, paved and upgraded lighting and sanitation. A few years later on the market have built an observation post equipped with a speakerphone, and alert system in case of war or terrorist acts. Market lives ... and although those first Russian traders long ago gave up their dukhans new, he still continues to be "Russian" as it was called in the early years.
