The Palestine antiquities trade has long been overlooked or ignored as any sort of factor in considering the origins and chain of custody for fragments labeled as from “The Cairo Genizah.” This article aims to redress that imbalance by examining the activities of twenty-one individuals involved in this trade. This first exploration of the connection between the Palestine Antiquities trade and the Cairo Genizah will further demonstrate the importance of provenance tracing. |
