Used here for its calculated regional total and its named per-city figures, alongside a considerably higher modern estimate recorded separately. 1CitationAuthorWell-attestedRichard Gottheil and Joseph Jacobs 1PublisherWell-attestedFunk & Wagnalls 1Publication YearWell-attested1903 1URLWell-attestedhttps://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/4785-crusades-the 1Source TypeWell-attestedencyclopedia 1Sources1.
