My primary historical interests are Jewish History and Military History, but as with most SCA members I am interested in just about anything Medieval. My current focus in the area of Jewish History is Medieval Spanish or Sephardic History. Jews whose origins go back to Medieval Spain are referred to as Sephardi while those from Eastern Europe are called Ashkenazi. Medieval Jewish HistoryChronology: Medieval Spain 410-1492 Abraham Ibd Daud: On Samuel Ha-Nagid, Vizier of Granada Las Siete Partidas: Laws on Jews, 1265 Ordinance of the Jews of the Crown of Aragon, 1354 CE The Expulsion from Spain, 1492 CE The CrusadesI have found an excellent online introduction to The Crusades. It was created by Dr. E.L. Skip Knox as part of a virtual course offered at Boise State University
