Bishop Severus of Menorca’s narrative about the conversion of Theodorus and the Jews of Magona (418) recalls a violence. In reality, that religious change left him socially, politically and economically as before. The following Vandal domination favored an irenic statute for the Jews, which would continue in the Byzantine era, when the apocryphal Letter of Heaven received by the bishop of Ibiza and rejected by Licinian of Cartagena (595), encouraged a Judaizing practice, such as the Sunday rest. Along archaeological grounds close to the Jews, we recall the presence of the Radhanites, and in the long Muslim era, not exempt from persecution, the Almudaina of Jews in Mayurqa survived.
