The village was founded on 27 June 1950 by immigrants from Al Bayda' in Yemen. It was named for the biblical figure of Ahiezer, who was the chief of the tribe of Dan which previously lived in the area (Numbers 1:12; 10:25).
The moshav was established on the agricultural lands of the Palestinian village of Al-Safiriyya.
