I’ve heard this before about the Ashkenazi but I’m not 100% sure how it lines up with the Jewish diaspora after the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70.
Jerusalem was sacked and The Jews were enslaved and spread out in the Roman Empire mainly in the frontiers. Spain was one frontier, Sephardic Jews come from Spain.
The other frontier was Kiev and that’s where the Ashkenazi originate.
