Intersection register · custodian, not owner
Taghit, an oasis in the Algerian western Sahara (Béchar province), had a small Jewish community connected to transSaharan caravan trade networks in the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries. As in other oases of southern Algeria, this presence gradually declined over the course of the nineteenth century.

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