Abstract:
A reexamination of events in 1010 based on the chronicles by Adémar de Chabannes and Rodulfus Glaber, and the "Hebrew Anonymous of 4767". In September 1009 the Caliph Al-Hakim destroyed the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. Proposes that when word of this event reached Europe, along with an accusation that the Jews had acted in collusion with the Muslims, it caused the wave of Christian attacks against Jews, including slaughter and drowning of Jews, as well as Jews who committed suicide.
