Description

Military/fiscal account. An official in the Fatimid military administration (mutawallī dīwān al-juyūsh) submits an account, presumably to do with military spending. The main text (l. 2) opens: rafaʿ li-dīwān al-juyūsh al-manṣūra al-ladhī yatawallahu l-ʿabd (Submitted to the victorious military bureau that the servant directs). On verso, there is the name — presumably as an address of the accounts on recto — of a superior with the extremely lofty titles al-Amīr al-Muʾayyad al-Manṣūr ʿIzz al-Mulk Sharaf al-Khilāfa Ghuṣn al-Dawla wa-Tājuhā Dhū l-Fakhr Ḥusām Amīr al-Muʾminīn Abū Manṣūr. Date: Dhū l-Qaʿda 509 AH (April–May 1114).
