Review: GREAT BOOK! - Great book. Gives alot of information that leads me to believe that after the destruction of the 2nd temple in 70 A.D, the Jews that were expelled from the Middle East, North Africa, Spain, and Portugal migrated to West Africa --Ghana, Mali, and Songhai--which was called the Bilad as-Sudan meaning LAND OF THE BLACKS in Arabic. They also migrated to Senegal and Cape Verde. Some even went as far as South Africa where there is a large Lemba community today. The Lemba have been genetically determined through DNA to be of the priestly tribe of the Levites!....and yes, they are BLACK AFRICANS. They practice Hebrewism that has been their religion for thousands of years. I always wondered how white people became Jews and owners of Israel! They are proselytes...converts. Not of the bloodline of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They stole the identity of the true Jews and hijacked the Hebrew language which was the language of the Canaanites. Hebrew is an AFRO-ASIATIC language close to Ugaritic. When they were in Europe, they spoke Yiddish and whatever language of the country they were from.
Review: I recoomend this book for anyone interested in world history! - I have read about half of this book and find it very interesting and informative. It certainly clears up a mystery for me. I am a native New Yorker and had many acquaintances who were Jewish from European ancestry. But I could never understand how this assimilation took place, since the Jews were supposed to be from the middle east. This book explains other parallel historical developments concerning the Vikings, Russia, other Turkish tribes as well as the Khazars development and subsequent conversion. As one gets past the introductory information, the book reads as well as a non-fiction work, as opposed to a dry historical tome. There are plenty of footnotes and references to substantiate the research. The author is very careful to give the sources he relies on and in most cases tries to get more than one source to substantiate the information he relies on. This book is not a polemic or agenda driven, but rather one that tries to enlighten the reader as to historical occurrences. I suggest that this book will be informative to anyone interested in early European history and its alliances affect us today.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Interesting Book
*by D***N on April 9, 2025*

A very interesting book. Koestler describes the fascinating Jewish kingdom of Khazaria, in the land north of the Caucaucus, between the Caspian and Black seas, and the area north of there, reaching as far west as Kiev. This kingdom lasted approximately 400 years, maintaining its independance against the Christian Byzantine empire to the southwest, and the Muslim empire to the south. The rise of the Russian kingdom in Kiev, and its alliance with the Byzantine empire, eventually ended the Khazar dominance in the region. Then its people were swept away-- like all the other peoples in southern Russia-- by the Mongol invasions led by Ghengis Khan. Koestler convincingly makes the case that the Jewish community in Poland descended from the Khazar refugees fleeing the Mongol devastation. He also makes the case the the Hungarian Jewish population descended from a dissident branch of Khazars, who migrated westward prior to the Mongol invasion.
