Population of Israel/Palestine before Jewish immigration?
Jun 17, 2007 by Freethinker | Posted in History
A lot of people say that the area of present-day Israel was nearly deserted before the Zionist movement of the early 20th century. According to Wikipedia (not always the most accurate source, but I digress) the population in that area in 1890 was 520,000.
Israel was established in what was, historically, the homeland of the Hebrews. They first established a kingdom there about 1,000 B.C. Subsequently, the land was invaded by the Assyrians, the Babylonians, Egyptians, Persians, Romans and Macedonians
