Description

Verso, with the address on recto: Letter in Arabic script. Dating: 11th or 12th century. Extremely difficult handwriting. Seems to be about business, reporting on the arrival of a certain person and mentioning terms such as numbers and 'aṣḥābnā.' Needs examination. Reused on recto for square-script Hebrew scribal practice, including the first verse of Genesis.
