Legal document: T-S AS 207.193

Legal document T-S AS 207.193

Description

Opening lines of a legal document, perhaps an entry in a court register or an addendum to a preexisting deed (the lower flourish of a rabbinic signature is visible along the upper border and suggests the existence of an upper section). Dating is 16th-century or later based on the paleography. This fragment is likely related to the neighboring shelfmark T-S AS 207.191, which has a similar scribal hand and also mentions legal parties with the first names Yosef and Mordekhay. If these are indeed the same people T-S AS 207.193 offers further details on one of their names: Yosef ____ b. Raḥamīm. MCD.
