Koestler advances the thesis that Ashkenazi Jews are not descended from the historical Israelites of antiquity, but from Khazars, a Turkic people originating in and populating an empire north of and between the Black Sea and Caspian Sea. Koestler's hypothesis is that the Khazars - who converted to Judaism in the 8th century - migrated westwards into current Eastern Europe (primarily Ukraine, Poland, Belarus, Lithuania, Hungary and Germany) in the 12th and 13th centuries when the Khazar Empire was collapsing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49682598297840,"sku":"NEW0945001428","price":13.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/the-thirteenth-tribe","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
