Lenkoran is a coastal city in southern Azerbaijan, on the Caspian Sea, close to the Iranian border. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries it was home to a community of Mountain Jews (Gorskie Evrei, or Mountain Jews), a Caucasian group of Tat-speaking people, who were primarily engaged in trade and crafts.

The days of this book

This book bears no memory day yet. The sources that document Lenkoran give years and centuries, never a day; we do not invent one.

You know a date — a remembrance, a hilloula, the anniversary of a departure? Give it its day
