Description

Accounts in Judaeo-Arabic related to silk, jewelry, "crimson rope/thread/ribbon," and other items. Many of the entries mention the weight of items. Dated in the month of Tevet in the upper entry of the recto, but the year is not fully legible in line 2: 5[.]43 or 5[.]41 AM. The missing digit is likely ת or ש based on the paleography (16th- or 17th-century). Cairo or, possibly, Egypt is mentioned at least twice (מצר) in the entries. A certain Yaʿaqov Ṭāwīl is mentioned in the second entry of the right column. Requires further examination. MCD.
