The term New Yishuv refers to those who adopted a new approach, based on economical independence and various national ideologies, rather than strictly religious reasons for settling in the "Holy Land". The precursors already began building homes outside the Old City walls of Jerusalem in the 1860s, followed soon after by the founders of the moshava of Petah Tikva, and fully getting in swing with the First Aliyah of 1882, followed by the founding of neighbourhoods and villages until the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.
