Elieser Ben Abraa Alantansi Jewish trader who set up a press in 1485 in Hijar (Spain). His helper was Salomao Maimon Zalmati (also Jewish, from Sevilla), the old teacher of Alfonso Fernandez de Cordoba. His equipment at the time was the most sophisticated on the Iberian peninsula. They were able to print in Castellano, Portuguese and Hebrew. Some researchers maintain that Elieser Alantansi and the Lisbon-based printer Elieser Toledano are one and the same.
