Cairo Geniza - Indian Ocean medieval trade
Website
The proposed project aims to publish the last three volumes of S. D. Goitein's (1900–85) 'India Book' - a remarkably groundbreaking and seminal study of Judeo-Arabic documents relating to Jewish medieval trade with India from the Cairo Geniza. The aim is to publish a Hebrew version containing the original editions of the Judeao-Arabic, Hebrew or Arabic documents, accompanied by translations and annotations.
