- Abstract
The contribution deals with the existence and nature of Jewish religious corporations (communities, associations, funeral fraternities) on the example of the territory north and northeast of Tábor, including brief descriptions of preserved prayer houses and the location of those which no longer exist. Everything is described on the basis of period legal standards, archival materials illustrating the activities of manorial, regional and district authorities and Jewish communities in the context of the history of Bohemian Jews from the 18th to the early 20th century. Some assumptions are presented first, then the results of a probe into the available sources, which is followed by an evaluation of the obtained data. The writer tried to state facts which can be proven by sources and to complement these with facts which are not fully verified, i.e. are only hypothetical. The probe into the available sources yielded, in addition to the desired data, also valuable data for Jewish topography, which has been investigated since the time of Jiří Fiedler's work at the Jewish Museum in Prague, as well as for the prosopography of interesting personalities of the community and for Jewish genealogy which is currently rather popular.
