Description

Legal document. Dated: Probably [16]11 Seleucid, which is 1299/1300 CE, under the authority of the Nagid Avraham (II) Maimonides. Location: Fustat. (Avraham I served 1204–37, which does not match any Seleucid date ending with 11; the handwriting is also consistent with a date ca. 1300 CE—it is quite similar to T-S 13J4.13). Seems to be a power of attorney in which the virgin girl Jalāl appoints somebody as her agent for something.
