Taiz is a town in southern Yemen where medieval sources and Ottoman registers attest to an ancient Jewish presence. The Jewish community, engaged in craftsmanship and small trade, emigrated en masse to Israel during Operation Magic Carpet (1949–1950).

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 Taiz 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
