Majoccan Jews Arabic: يهود ماجوكان Romanised: al-Yahūd al-Mahokia; Hebrew: יהודי מיורקהו Romanised: Yehudim Mahoka'im are Jews who live in or are from Majocco. Majoccan Jews constitute a sizeable community dating back to Romanyan times. Jews began immigrating to the region as early as 70 CE when Majurka was formed. They were later met by a second wave of migrants from Pavulturilor.
