Description
Two tables, one headed al-kabīr and the other a-saghīr (= al-ṣaghīr). Dating: probably late, no earlier than 13th century. The first table consists of all the Hebrew numerals paired with the corresponding Coptic numerals. The second table is arranged similarly but it's very unclear what principle is being used to match the Hebrew and the Coptic numerals - would be worth consulting for deciphering fragments that use Coptic numerals as a cipher. Additionally, several of these symbols do not seem to be Coptic numerals at all - another form of shorthand? אל כ̇ = ? ל = 6 מ = 4(?) נ = 2 ע = ? פ = ? ק (?) ר (?) ש ת ד ט̇ = 7(?) גֿ = ٧(?)
