The geography of the Jewish history – the vague is greater than the explicit. Surely, there are a handful of people in our generation who are able to look at an historical atlas and point out the location of Nehardea, Pumbedita and Sura. However, even the historical atlas does not show the locations of hundreds of Jewish communities that existed in greater Babylon. And, who can guarantee that in a hundred years from now the thousands of European Jewish congregations will be remembered unless we build for them a gravestone of this kind. This is the mission of “Pinkas ha-Kehilot” which got a priority in the undertakings of Yad Vashem.
