Thessaloníki Becomes Jewish
In the years since the exiles first landed, Thessaloníki has been transformed. Its docks, its workshops, and its markets now run to the rhythm of the Sabbath more than any other calendar, and its Jewish population has grown to outnumber every other community in the city combined. Our own officials have started keeping their accounts to the same rhythm, if only because so much of the city's trade now depends on it.

historical_info = d009_sephardi_diaspora.2.historical_info By the mid-16th century, Sephardi Jews made up a majority of Thessaloníki's population, and the city became known among Jewish communities across Europe and the Mediterranean as a center of Sephardi learning, printing, and textile production, particularly wool cloth woven for Ottoman military uniforms. Judeo-Spanish (Ladino) remained a major language of the city's streets and markets well into the 20th century.
