Description

State document, iqṭāʿ-related. Dating: Likely Mamluk-era, based on handwriting and format. The bottom 11 lines of the document are preserved. Moderately wide space between the lines. Mentions the police "raqqāṣīn" and "shurṭa", Aswan(?), and "diyār al-Miṣriyya wa al-Shāmiyya". Needs further examination. Reused on recto for Hebrew liturgy and other jottings.
