oa De synagoge van Sardis en haar inscripties

The recent publication of the numerous inscriptions from the great synagogue in late antique Sardis sheds new light on the position of the Jewish community in this city. After a short survey of the scarce data about the history of the Jews in Sardis, some of the more significant inscriptions pass review and the implications for our knowledge of the prominent Jewish presence in the life of the city are discussed.
