Description

Fatimid-era petition. From Muʿammar [...] al-Tūnisī. In Arabic script. He is in trouble on account of the capitation tax and says he does not have enough money to buy food and that he wishes to return home to his frail mother. Begins "uʿlimu/uʿallimu," perhaps a clue of lower status or earlier period.
