Eastern Ashkenazim: Jews whose ancestors settled in north-Eastern Europe, in countries like Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Hungary, Lithuania and the region once known as Galicia. The first Jews in the area came northwest from Palestine, speaking Hebrew and Jud�o-Aramaic. Many settled and eventually mixed with Khazars and perhaps also other Turkic and Caucasian peoples who had also come from the East. (Other Jews continued westward to Central Europe and adopted some Central European culture, including creating Jud�o-German, a Jewish variant of Medieval Germanic dialects mixed with Hebrew, Aramaic, Old French and Old Italian.)
