Talk:Heinrich Caro

Jewish?
Caro is a Jewish name. Rabbi Joseph Caro (or Karo) is the Rabbi who 400 years ago wrote the "Set Table", the book of Jewish rules, followed by all orthodox Jews. Heinrich was born in Poznan, where there was a large Jewish community. He started his career working with Jaques Meyer father of Viktor Meyer.

He then worked with Karl Lieberman and Carl Graebe.

Carl Graebe (here in English Wikipedia for some reason listed as Grabe with an umlaute on it, while in the German wikipedia he is listed with English letters) himself seems to be of Jewish descent. His father was trade minister of Frankfurt, and he studied at the what seems to have been a Jewish school - Abel and Simon's school.

Working on Indigo and discovering the process of creating blue, red and purple dies was a Jewish quest. See Techelet and especially the discussion on Yigael Yadin's findings at Massada (actually found in the Bar Kochba caves in the Judean desert).
