Description

Accounts in Judaeo-Arabic, very detailed. Dating is likely 16th-century based on the paleography and currencies referenced. There is a full date in the upper left corner of the recto but it does not include a hundreds place: Jumada II [9]44 AH (1537 CE).The currencies are Ottoman gold jadīd and some type of "qadīm" coinage (perhaps a defunct Mamlūk standard). For another 16th-century document where these two forms of currency are listed alongside one another, see: T-S NS 83.7 (PGPID 26200). Another currency is "Selim" (verso) likely a coinage minted under the Ottoman Sultan Selim I (r. 1512-1520 CE). The entries include many names and locations: (recto) sūq al-ḥarīr (silk market), sūq al-gor__[?], Muḥammad al-Bābī, Jamāl al-Dīn al-Wafāʾī, ʿAbd al-Qādr al-Wafāʾī, (verso) sūq al-waraq (paper market), Yosef אלמחלוי, al-Emir Fil__ ___[?] al-Jablī.
