Footnotes
- Reconstructed month; the blood-cities list in ספר אזכרות נשמות לקהלת נירנברג SEFER AZKAROT NEŜAMOT LIʾKEHILAT NIRNBERG supplies no local date. TJD applies Lotter’s July 18–August 1 Julian regional wave to the community’s geography. Amberg’s placement is a weaker neighboring-region inference and does not date Lemlin’s death elsewhere. Salfeld, Das Martyrologium des Nürnberger Memorbuches, Hebrew pp. 37–39; German pp. 182–184; Lotter,
Rintfleisch-Verfolgung, 1298,
