Description

Legal testimony from June/July 1225 CE (Tammuz 1536 in the Seleucid calendar) written under the auspices of Avraham Maimonides (1186-1237). A certain 'daughter of Abu al-Surur' is mentioned. The other side of the page contains a fragment of a legal testimony by the same hand, but probably a part of a different case. In line 6 the scribe clearly intended to have 'the banner of the rabbis' but the last letter in 'the rabbis' is omitted.
