Description

Accounts in Hebrew and western Arabic numerals. Late. Mentions 'the fattoria' several times, probably referring to the mercantile arrangement of 'factors/fattores' representing an employer. Currencies: real/reales (spelled ריאליץ) and עוט׳(?). Some of the accounts utilize symbols resembling the "<" and "÷" in contemporary mathematics but their meaning in the context of these calculations is unclear. Despite the vast amount of text on this fragment it does not appear to contain a date, but the paleography helps to estimate its dating as early modern (sixteenth-nineteenth centuries).
