the call attacked

The call of Alcira was attacked during the wave of thirteen hundred and ninety-one.

The town of the Ribera, on the Xúquer, was among the communities of the kingdom of Valencia that the wave swept away in a few summer days. After the wave, the Valencian Jewish community had ceased to exist as a body: whatever remained of its members lived on as converts.
