The journal was established in Jerusalem in 1935, but in the years 1926-1934 it appeared under the title Zion: Me’asef. Zion covers all aspects of Jewish history, drawn from all the lands in which Jews lived - in Israel and in the Diaspora, from antiquity to the modern era, including emerging studies in historiography, review essays, and book reviews. Zion is numbered among the academic journals frequently cited by scholars treating on ancient Jewish history.[2]
