Historical Jewish community in the port city of Aden
Aden Jew – mid 1870s
Adeni Jews (Hebrew: יהדות עדן), or Adenite Jews[1] are the historical Jewish community which resided in the port city of Aden.[2] Adenite culture became distinct from other Yemenite Jewish culture due to British control of the city and Indian-Iraqi influence as well as recent arrivals from Persia and Egypt.[3][4] Although they were separated, Adeni Jews depended on the greater Yemenite community for spiritual guidance, receiving their authorizations from Yemeni rabbis.[4] Virtually the entire population emigrated from Aden between June 1947 and September 1967.[5] As of 2004, there were 6,000 Adenites in Israel, and 1,500 in London.[6]
