Beni-Israel

Beni-Israel (i. e. Sons of Israel) are a remarkable people, few in number, of Jewish type and customs, in India (mainly in Maharashtra), and that have existed there quite isolatedly for at least 1000 years, with a language of their own, and even some literature. They do not mingle with the Jews, but they practise similar religious observances.
