Description

Letter. In Judaeo-Arabic. Dating: Late, maybe 15th century or later, based on handwriting, abbreviations, formulae, format. The main letter on recto deals with various business matters; mentions rose water; sends many greetings. Somebody else added a postscript. On verso there is another note, mentioning three jarā'ir of barley, and the sufferings of Ibn Manṣūr(?) from the day the qaẓin arrived, and also that R. Levi "stays at the dīwān night and day." Needs further examination.
