The Origin of Ashkenazi Jewry: The Controversy Unraveled
Jits van Straten
Where do East European Jews – about 90 percent of Ashkenazi Jewry – descend from? Jits van Straten argues that there is no evidence for the most common assumption that German Jews fled en masse to Eastern Europe to constitute East European Jewry. Finally, it is suggested that East European Jews are mainly descendants of Ukrainians and Belarussians.
