The Jews of Khazaria explores the history and culture of Khazaria-a
large empire in eastern Europe (located in present-day Ukraine and
Russia) in the early Middle Ages noted for its adoption of the
Jewish religion. The third edition of this modern classic features
new and updated material throughout, including new archaeological
findings, new genetic evidence, and new information about the
migration of the Khazars. Though little-known today, Khazaria was
one of the largest political formations of its time-an economic and
cultural power connected to several important trade routes and
known for its religious tolerance. After the royal family converted
to Judaism in the ninth century, many nobles and common people did
likewise. The Khazars were ruled by a succession of Jewish kings
and adopted many hallmarks of Jewish civilization, including study
of the Torah and Talmud, Hebrew script, and the observance of
Jewish holidays. The third edition of The Jews of Khazaria tells
the compelling true story of this kingdom past.
