Talk:Alabarch

Own Research?
User Kass Evans has completely changed the article with what appears to be her own original research. You can see it on her small website Kassevans.com Its interesting research but I think it should be reviewed and reverted if its not supported. It seems odd to me that the Jewish Alabarchs would have been purveyors of the gold mines for Rome. 64.223.120.232 (talk) 03:38, 23 November 2019 (UTC)John Dee

 * Thank you for the fast response. On closer inspection her logic seems flawed. She is considering the Alabarchy to have always been the purveyor of gold mines based on a description in Justinian's 6th century edicts. The edict itself even says that it was "at that time" carried out by that alabarch, suggesting that it wasn't a permanent arrangement. 64.223.120.232 (talk) 03:50, 23 November 2019 (UTC)John Dee
