The name is symbolic, as in "Regev" ("lump of earth"). In 2005 it had a population of about 600. The village was established in 1946 by a group of veterans of the British Army from Germany, the Netherlands and English speaking countries. It was originally established as a kibbutz and became a moshav shitufi in 1949.
