study. Boys would prepare a
"dreidel" (a four-sided top),
a still popular game which
began in the early Middle
Ages.
The four sides were mark-
ed with the Hebrew letters
Nun, Gimmel, He, Shin,
standing for Yiddish words
"Nimm, Gib, Halb, Shtell,"N
meaning "take, give half,
and put."
The letters were later in-
terpreted as standing for the
Hebrew "Nes Gadol Hayah
Sham" (a great miracle hap-
pened there). In modern Is-
rael the last word was chang-
ed to "Po," so as to read: a
great miracle happened here.
The hymn sung, in the
Ashkenazi ritual, after the
kindling of the. Hanuka lights,
is Ma'oz Zur, "0 Fortress,
Rock (of my salvation)."
The song originated in Ger-
many, probably in the 13th
century; the author is - an
otherwise unknown poet by
the name of Mordecai as
shown by the acrostic of the
first five stanzas.

Hanuka (like Purim) is a
festival of celebration, spec-
ial foods, and fun filled
games.
According to the Encyclo-
paedia Judaica, H a n u k a
dishes symbolize historical
events connected with the
festival. Jews of all commun-
ities eat pastry and potato
preparations fried in oil as a
reminder of the cruse of oil
at. the rededication of the
Temple.
Ashkenazim called them
"latkes," and they have dif-
ferent names among Sephar-
diin and oriental Jews. Thus
the "sufganiyot" (doughnuts)
of Hanuka, eaten in Israel,
and the levivot" (latkes)
have a long tradition.
A popular East European,
salad of this festival is the
"retekh salat" of radish, tur-
nip, olives, and onions, and
onions fried in goose fat with
"grivn" (cracklings), all the
ingredients having been_pop-
ular in the Maccabean era.
