Literary text AIU VII.A.7Description
Narrative text about the destruction of the second temple — Yossipon? Mentions Titus, bayt al-maqdis, al-Quds (Jerusalem), and "a village called Maṣitā" (Masada?) to which the remaining Jews fled; then Elʿazar al-Dayyan, burj al-rūm and requesting safe-passage (amān) from the Romans. Copied in a scribal hand, but much of the ink has chipped off. Still, probably most of it can be deciphered. MR
