Description

Accounts in Ladino, possibly mentioning two transactions related to enslaved people. Dating: perhaps 15th or 16th-century based on the paleography. The first two entries state: "tomo un Moro (Moor) por dicho de R. Yaʿaqov..." (I received a Moor by word of R. Yaʿaqov) and in ll. 3-4: "tomo un Turqo (Turk) por mano de R. Yosef..." (I received a Turk from the hand of R. Yosef...). It is also possible that these are transactions in "Moorish" and "Turkish" goods but the nouns/items themselves are not mentioned. The penultimate entry entry mentions receipt of a "tersyo(?) grande de Fransya" (from France). Requires further examination. For accounts that are clearly related to the sale of enslaved people from a similar timespan, see: T-S AS 203.165 (PGPID 22694). MCD.
