Perhaps i...Thanks CHF, for the astute observation. <br />Perhaps it was felt that I alluded to a start of Karimi trade with Malabar post 1258 in the article, actually not! What is stated is - I would come to the conjecture that the worrisome situation in Europe and the Middle East owing to the 1258 volcanic eruption, resulted in increased export volumes and profitability, speeding up the maritime passages Maddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163804773843409980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258499896042719014.post-45235545922422286772013-10-04T07:13:20.269-04:002013-10-04T07:13:20.269-04:00Can we attribute the influx of Karimi merchants an...Can we attribute the influx of Karimi merchants and the Genizah Jews to Malabar coast to the conquest of Baghdad in 1258? We need to discuss two more events to put things in perspective. Firstly, the Norman Invasion of Tunisia (1135-1148)had a devastating effect on trade with the East. One of the victims of this conquest was the brother of 'our' Abraham Yiju who was rendered destitute.
