AB According to the Bible, Hebrews were in contact with Tarshish (orTartessus, in present day Andalucía, Spain) since the time of King Solomon in the 10thcentury B.C. In the 8th and 6th centuries B.C., Hebrews were deported from the Levant byAssyrians, Babylonians and Tyrians, and many were enslaved in Phoenician-controllediron mines in Africa (Mogador) and southern Spain. Around the middle of the first millenniumB.C., for the first and only time in the Hebrew Bible, the Book of Obadiah(Abdias), verse 1:20 documented the name Sefarad (also written as Sfarad, Spharad orSepharad). Obadiah’s verse includes an historic message, and a rationale that links thename Sefarad with Spain. The word Sefarad is also connected to Greek mythology and aspecific geography.
