Description

Recto: Letter draft probably from Shelomo b. Eliyyahu to his paternal aunt Umm Dā'ūd. In Judaeo-Arabic. Congratulating her on the successful delivery of her daughter Sitt al-Yumn (presumably the same whom Shelomo wooed in T-S 13J18.22). The letter seems to have been abandoned after this line. In the upper margin, the writer practices the phrase "al-mamlūk Barakāt yuqabbil al-arḍ" in Arabic script. Verso: List in Arabic script with names and sums. ASE.
