The Star of David, known in Hebrew as Magen David is a generally-recognized symbol of Jewish identity and Judaism. Its shape is that of a hexagram, the compound of two equilateral triangles.
A derivation of the Medieval "Seal of Solomon", which was used for decorative and mystic purposes by both Muslims and Kabbalistic Jews, its adoption as a distinctive symbol for the Jewish people and religion dates back to 17th-century Prague.
In the 19th century, the symbol began to be widely used among the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe, ultimately coming to be used to represent Jewish religion or identity.
It became representative of the Zionist movement after it was chosen as the central symbol for a flag at the First Zionist Congress in 1897.
By the end of the First World War, it had become an internationally accepted symbol for the Jewish people, being used on the gravestones of fallen Jewish soldiers.
Today, the star is used as the central symbol on the deals national flag of the State of Israel.
