“…Once under Christian control, the city and its harbour became a key strategic port in the string of coastal settlements which formed the backbone of the Frankish States in the Latin East, particularly during the 13 th century CE. During this period the city changed hands several times between Muslim and Frankish control [15,16], and suffered several violent events of note during this time as reported in contemporary accounts [17][18][19][20][21][22].…”

Archaeological excavations close to St Louis’ castle in Sidon, Lebanon have revealed two mass grave deposits containing partially articulated and disarticulated human skeletal remains. A minimum of 25 male individuals have been recovered, with no females or young children. Radiocarbon dating of the human remains, a crusader coin, and the design of Frankish belt buckles strongly indicate they belong to a single event in the mid-13th century CE. The skeletal remains demonstrate a high prevalence of unhealed sharp force, penetrating force and blunt force trauma consistent with medieval weaponry. Higher numbers of wounds on the back of individuals than the front suggests some were attacked from behind, possibly as they fled. The concentration of blade wounds to the back of the neck of others would be compatible with execution by decapitation following their capture. Taphonomic changes indicate the skeletal remains were left exposed for some weeks prior to being collected together and re-deposited in the defensive ditch by a fortified gateway within the town wall. Charring on some bones provides evidence of burning of the bodies. The findings imply the systematic clearance of partially decomposed corpses following an attack on the city, where adult and teenage males died as a result of weapon related trauma. The skeletons date from the second half of the Crusader period, when Christian-held Sidon came under direct assault from both the Mamluk Sultanate (1253 CE) and the Ilkhanate Mongols (1260 CE). It is likely that those in the mass graves died during one of these assaults.

“…Between 1253 and 1262, Pope Innocent IV and Pope Alexander IV granted indulgence privileges to churches in Acre. The faithful could receive partial remissions of sins for visiting the churches or supporting them financially (Jacoby, 2014;Pringle, 2012). Part of the plan was likely also to create a pilgrimage or procession route, described in a small text entitled Pardonus d'Acre, which will be discussed below (Jacoby, 2005).…”

“…A separate comment is also required on the view expressed by David Jacoby that Pardonus d'Acre constitutes evidence of the living practicealready visible early in the second half of the 13th century-of processional visits to Acre temples by pilgrims coming to the city. The authenticity and dating of the work (to the years 1259-1263) do not raise serious doubts among scholars today (Jacoby, 2001;Pringle, 2012). It is currently known from one manuscript, dated to the 14th century and kept in the British Library (reference no.…”

“Like a faithful daughter she cherishes and nourishes in herself the remnants of Holy Jerusalem, her mother”: Acre as a Center for Church Practices in the 12th and 13th Centuries

In the history of Acre, located on the Syrian coast, the 12th and 13th centuries were of particular importance. Under the rule of the Crusaders, the city experienced a period of rapid demographic, economic, cultural, and religious growth. As the main port of the Kingdom of Jerusalem—and in the 13th century its capital as well—it was an important stop on the route of Latin pilgrims. Nevertheless, it was mentioned extremely rarely in the pilgrimage writings of that period, where information about the sites of worship in the city is scarce. This problem was noticed by Aryeh Graboïs and David Jacoby, but their attempts to explain this state of affairs need to be partly reexamined. The most important reason for the “silence of pilgrimage sources” about the city and its religious life seems to be the marginal presence of Acre in the pages of the Bible and its negligible place in the history of salvation.
