Description

Trousseau list. In Judaeo-Arabic. Groom: Ḥalfon ha-Levi b. Shelomo. Bride: Khalīfa bt. Avraham. Dating: Probably no later than 1032 CE, because Ḥalfon's father is not marked as dead in this document, and there is a signature from a Ḥalfon ha-Levi b. Shelomo (ZL) in T-S 16.45 from 1032 CE. The total value of the trousseau amounts to 865 dinars. Goitein's note card suggests that some of the prices, especiallly of household goods, are exaggerated.
