Capuaקאפואה

Campania, Italy

Capua, a town in Campania, southern Italy, was one of the places where the kabbalist Rabbi Abraham Abulafia, founder of prophetic Kabbalah, studied and taught in the thirteenth century. In the early 1260s he studied Maimonides' Guide of the Perplexed there under Rabbi Hillel of Verona, and he later returned to teach a circle of students in Capua.
