History

It was founded in 1974 by computer science graduates from the Technion on the land where the Arab village of Mi'ar existed until 1947 and the independence of Israel.{{cite web|title=Mi'ar / מִעאר / ميعار|url=http://zochrot.org/en/place/miar|website=Zochrot|access-date=30 October 2014}}

According to Walid Khalidi, Ya'ad was established in 1975 on the land of the Palestinian village of Mi'ar, which had been depopulated in 1948. Ya'ad was established north-east of the village site.{{cite book|title=All That Remains: The Palestinian Villages Occupied and Depopulated by Israel in 1948|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_By7AAAAIAAJ|first=W.|last=Khalidi|author-link=Walid Khalidi|year=1992|location=Washington D.C.|publisher=Institute for Palestine Studies|isbn=0-88728-224-5|page=26}}
