Tel Sha’er is a moshav established in 1948 on the lands of the displaced decommissioned village of Kharbat Beit Far, in the Ramla district. It was founded by Zionist immigrants from Greece, Poland, and Turkey along the Burma Road on agricultural lands that belonged to the village of Kharbat Beit Far. The settlement was named after Henry Morgantha and Junior (Morgenthau); the name is German and means “morning dew.” As of 2022, its population numbered 1,350 settlers.
