Judaeo-Arabic

Bifolio of neatly written Judaeo-Arabic business accounts. Dating: likely 16th-century based on the paleography. At first glance, the accounts appear to be dated "in 962 (AH)" but comparison of this abbreviation in the headings of shelfmarks discussed below leads to the more likely reading ״בס׳׳ט״ בסימן טוב. […] Probably the same scribe as T-S AS 210.50 + JRL B 4158 (PGPID 28642), possibly even the same ledger of accounts. Requires further examination. AA/ASE/MCD

Judaeo-Arabic

Primary use (probably): Business accounts in the hand of Avraham Ibn Yijū. Concerning transactions conducted in Jurbattan in betel nut, cardamom, coins, and copper and lead. […] If the mention of ʿAbd Allāh in l. 2 refers to Ibn Yijū's associate the nākhudā Abū ʿAbd Allāh who died in 1146, then these accounts would date to 1146 or earlier. It is puzzling that Ibn Yijū seems to have written these brief accounts on a very large piece of paper and not to have reused the copious blank space until ~1151. But it is not implausible, given that he often reused scrap paper later for calendars and/or accounts years later. Identified by Alan Elbaum.
