Footnotes

  1. Reconstructed Hebrew year; the blood-cities list in ספר אזכרות נשמות לקהלת נירנברג SEFER AZKAROT NEŜAMOT LIʾKEHILAT NIRNBERG supplies no local date. TJD combines Salfeld’s tentative Augsburg-region identification with the summer danger reflected in Augsburg’s August 23 agreement. That document names neither these victims nor Rettenbergen. Autumn 5059 remains possible; its position here establishes no order relative to dated entries. Salfeld, Das Martyrologium des Nürnberger Memorbuches, Hebrew p. 38; German p. 183; Augsburg agreement, 23 August 1298,; Lotter, Die Judenverfolgung, pp. 391–392, 422
