Description

Recto: Letter in Judaeo-Arabic addressed to the author's sister Sabaqīya (סבקייא). The writer also mentions his sister's contact with Ṣafanya b. ____[?] al-Qarāʾ (the Qaraite) and the latter's payment of four gold ginzirlis (minted post-1707 CE). The letter's dating can be inferred as roughly Kislev 5488 AM because it was sent in tandem with the legal document on the verso which involves the recipient Sabaqīya. MCD.
