History
Source:[2]
Ceramics and coins from the Byzantine era were found in the region of Beit Hashita.[3]
The kibbutz traces its origin to a group meeting held in Hadera in 1928, by "Kvuzat HaHugim" of the HaMahanot HaOlim movement from Haifa and Jerusalem.[4] The first members lived at nearby Ein Harod until 1934, when establishment of the kibbutz began at its present location about 1 km east of Shatta.[4]
The land of the kibbutz was purchased by the Palestine Land Development Company from its Arab owners in 1931.[5][6]
The kibbutz was later named after the biblical town Beit Hashita, where the Midianites fled after being beaten by Gideon (Judges 7:22),[7][8] thought to be located where Shatta was. It falls under the jurisdiction of Gilboa Regional Council.
In the 1945 statistics, Beit hash Shitta had 590 inhabitants, all Jews. It was noted that Shatta was an alternative name.[9][10]

In 1948, Beit HaShita took over 5,400 dunams of land from the newly depopulated Arab villages of Yubla and Al-Murassas.[11]
Eleven kibbutz members fell during the 1973 Yom Kippur War, the largest number as a percentage of the population than any other town in Israel.[12]
Economy
Beit Hashita produced cotton, wheat, melons, olives and citrus fruits. There was also a dairy barn, chickens and a fish farm. In the 1960s, Beit HaShita established a pickling factory which produces and markets pickles, olives and pickled vegetables under the brand name Beit HaShita.[13] The factory also produces syrups for making juices under the brand name Vitaminchick. The factory was bought from the kibbutz in 1998 by the Israeli food manufacturer, Osem.[14]
Religion and culture
The Kibbutz Institute for Holidays and Jewish Culture, an organization that preserves the cultural heritage of the kibbutz, was established by kibbutz member Aryeh Ben-Gurion, nephew of Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion.[15] Beit Hashita served as the basis for the 1981 English language book Kibbutz Makom, which described the kibbutz society.[16] Many of the member families of the kibbutz are secular.Шаблон:Citation needed There is however a small orthodox synagogue.Шаблон:Citation needed
