[edit] Founders

The article states that 12 Romanian pioneers founded Degania in 1909, yet the Time Magazine article from 5/7/2007 indicates that 12 Jews from Russia were the founders in 1910? Ekem 19:01, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

The answer is found on the Degania website: they came from Russia in 1910. Will make corrections. Ekem 01:50, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Degania Alef and Degania Bet

These two were not 2 offsprings of one Kibbutz. They were seperate entities from the beginning. The idea at the time was to name all collective settlements which later were called Kibbutzim as Degania, with a hebrew letter to distinguish between them, but after the first two were named Degania Alef and Degania Bet, this idea was abandoned and the later kibbutzim got each a different name.--Nitsansh 06:06, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
