Syria had a mixed Jewish population of Musta'arabim (Arabic-speaking Jews) and Sephardim whose ancestors had been expelled from Spain in 1492 or who later fled Portugal. The Lisbona were one of the most famous Sephardic families of Damascus, whose elegant home hosted eminent visitors from around the world. David Lisbona shares his family's story.
