Hi Bob, It is Koestlers novel : The 13 tribe, that is not a legend because
the Han Bulan of the people of Khasars, they lived between the Volga and
Don, he converted with his nobles to juedaisme, after that the whole tribe
converted, they were not christians before, they were "Heiden", pagani in
roumanian, I do not know in english...Benjamin de Tudela, a Jewish deputy in
Spain before Torquemada) was sent as deputy from the Spanish Court to Bulan,
I read the diary of Tudela in German, may be 15 years ago, he made the same
trip like Marco Polo....These Khasars were very good fighters and came until
Pokutia, it is Poland and probably also to Bukovina...They were like the
Wikings,blond with blue eyes, their state were in the years 700-1100, than
they disappeared...and may be, who can know the Jentes in the year 1000????a
goodlooking man, once it is not a
 "sin"...Isn't it????
Shabbat Shalom
Hedwig
