Tkuma ( _he. תקומה, lit. "Resurrection") is a religious moshav in southern Israel. Located to the north-west of Netivot, it falls under the jurisdiction of Sdot Negev Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 514.

The village was established as a kibbutz on the night of 5 and 6 October 1946 as one of the 11 points in the Negev at a location around a mile from the present site. The first residents were immigrants from Eastern Europe who had survived the Holocaust. Its name reflects the resurrection of Israel.

In 1949 the village moved to its present location (on land which had formerly belonged to the abandoned Arab village of al-Muharraqa) following several clashes with local Arabs. In the 1950s the moshav was joined by more immigrants from Eastern Europe and Tunisia.
