		His book, called The Yosippon, was the most popular book on Jewish history for the past millennium, and nearly every Jewish male and most females were familiar with its story and its message of national pride.

	Re: orion Yosippon
		In regards to the persistence of Nicolas of Damascus in the tenth century, and in what form, this is of course a difficult subject with many unresolved side-issues.
