He was born in Poswol before 1665, and died in Troki in 1745 at an age exceeding 80 years. Solomon was the author of many religious writings and polemical tracts about Karaite practices and customs, such as <em>ʾ</em><em>Appiryon ʿaśa lo</em>,  <em>Migdal </em><em>ʿ</em><em>oz</em>, <em>Raḵ wa-ṭoḇ</em>,  <em>Ḥanoḵ lan-na</em><em>᷾</em><em>ar</em> and <em>Laḥem šeʿarim </em>(known as <em>Leḥem </em><em>śe</em><em>ʿ</em><em>orim</em>). He also wrote poems. Solomon b. Aaron was head of a Karaite Bet-Din (in Wilna), as well as a religious head of the Lithuanian Karaites. Of his private life hardly anything is known. Due to lack of data one cannot give a full picture of his life; the article thus compiles information gathered from various Hebrew texts. Alongside Karaite literature, the article employs recent findings into Karaism to verify information within the Karaite texts.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Studia Azjatystyczne}, author={Kubicki, Sebastian}, year={2016}, month={cze.}, pages={77–87} }
