Echad ushlosh meyot - mi yodeya?

Question

Who knows three hundred and one?

In the spirit of the song "Echad - mi yodeya", please post interesting and significant Jewish facts about the number 301.

Anyone who posts an answer consisting of just the lazy gematria is fired.

Check out mi-yodeya-series for the previous three hundred entries in this ongoing series.

Please include sources for your information wherever possible, as with all other answers on this site.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to fire them, but I certainly would tell them to "SHA!" — HodofHod, May 22 '12 at 23:24
Is there a master index somewhere of this series? (I mean other than having to manually check each page) — user11667, Apr 13 '16 at 2:21
@ibid, if you sort the series tag list by "newest," you get them, with very few exceptions, lined up in reverse order. — Isaac Moses♦, Apr 13 '16 at 3:07
@IsaacMoses - Has anyone (who, unlike me, knows Hebrew) compiled it into a super extended version of the song? — user11667, Apr 13 '16 at 3:22
@ibid, funny you should ask. We are doing a little bit of that, in English though, for the forthcoming second edition of Hagada - Mi Yodeya?, with an eye toward doing the whole series in the future. — Isaac Moses♦, Apr 13 '16 at 3:27

@DoubleAA true, go for it! – HodofHod May 22 '12 at 19:10
I'm afraid mine has less of a chance of qualifying as "interesting and significant". – Double AA♦ May 22 '12 at 19:11
