I am an amateur historian and analyst based in Bat-Yam, Israel. I am interested in researching selected ancient, medieval, and early modern issues from the far and not-so-far past.
I have authored two books: "Dawn and Sunset: A Tale of the Oldest Cities in the Near East" and "The Enchanting Encounter with the East: Breaking the Ice between the Latin West and the Far East."
I am currently covering medieval and early modern shipping in the Mediterranean.
