10.2 | A double page from the women’s ‘Hauptbuch’ [‘general ledger’] at the Auschwitz-Birkenau ‘gypsy camp’. The names are those of the victims of the murder operation carried out on 25 May 1943, during which more than 1,000 Sinti and Roma were murdered in the gas chambers. The abbreviation ‘Gest. SB’ stands for ‘Gestorben. Sonderbehandlung’ [‘Deceased. Special treatment’].
