An ephemeral Abbasid capital on the Tigris, Samarra had a Jewish presence in the caliphal era. Medieval Arab sources note Jewish families engaged in trade and crafts.
Great Book being written
This Great Book does not yet have published chapters. The chapters — each bearing its register, its epistemic status and its sources — will be added as editorial enrichment and assisted generation progress.
The days of this book
This book bears no memory day yet. The sources that document Samarra give years and centuries, never a day; we do not invent one.
