Description

Bifolio of neatly written Judaeo-Arabic business accounts. Dating: likely 16th-century based on the paleography. At first glance, the accounts appear to be dated "in 962 (AH)" but comparison of this abbreviation in the headings of shelfmarks discussed below leads to the more likely reading ״בס׳׳ט״ בסימן טוב. Mentions (mostly Muslim) names such as Aḥmad b. Mūsā, Ḥājj ʿUmar Shāmī, Ḥājj Ibrāhīm b. ʿImrān, ʿUmar b. Muḥammad, Muḥammad b. Sulaymān. Probably the same scribe as T-S AS 210.50 + JRL B 4158 (PGPID 28642), possibly even the same ledger of accounts. Requires further examination. AA/ASE/MCD
