Description

Order addressed to the ʿarīf al-ʿaṭṭārīn for either 10 raṭls or 2 bales (عشرة ارطال او رزمتين) of an unidentified commodity (appears in the second line on the right) for the Bustān al-Malik al-Ṣāliḥ. The name (signature?) of al-Malik al-Ṣāliḥ then appears at lower left. Very similar in layout and content as ENA 3968.12 (PGPID 10670). See also: Moss. IXa,2.37 (PGPID 36524) - a petition from the ʿaṭṭārin complaining about the ʿurafāʾ of the bustān al-malik al-ṣāliḥ ENA 3971.8 (PGPID 10774) - order addressed to an ʿaṭṭār, notable mainly for proximity in the binder to this fragment; unknown if they are related.
