Great Synagogue at Aleppo, Syria

Diarna's documentation entry on the Great Synagogue at Aleppo, once home to the Aleppo Codex before its 1947 looting, comes from an established digital heritage preservation project mapping Jewish historical sites across North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia. Its strength is that Diarna is a sustained, specialist digital heritage project combining mapping, field research and multimedia documentation specifically for at-risk Jewish heritage sites. Its limit is that it is a heritage documentation record, not a full scholarly history of the synagogue or the Aleppo Codex, which should be sought in dedicated manuscript and community histories.
