This is a midrash that consists of a dialogue between a rabbi and a "cuteo" (seems like a student) on a passage from Ecclesiastes:
“Un cuteo le preguntó a R. Meir lo siguiente:
- ¿Los muertos reviven?
- Sí –contestó él.
- ¿Sin testigos o con testigos? –siguió.
- Con testigos –respondió
Student makes sense intuitively, but I couldn't find any information on the word. Even looked in Hebrew. Is it a type? Thanks

[excerpt from below]
A number of Christian pilgrims recorded the existence of Samaritans in Egypt in the 14th cent. The earliest was the Irish Franciscan Symon Semeonis who visited Egypt on his way to the Holy Land in 1323. He enumerates three Jewish groups : the Rabbanites, the Karaites, and the Cusygym. The last term is a rendition of cutim.

cuteo: "[ii]Miembro del grupo antisemita proveniente de Persia y Medea que el rey Senaquerib implantó en Samaria después de derrotar y exiliar a las Diez Tribus"
I don't know how you will translate it, but looking for the story of Senaccherib may help
