Description

Small and damaged fragment from a prenuptial agreement. Written by Halfon b. Menashshe ha-Levi (fl. 1100–38 CE) in his cursive hand. From the little that can be salvaged, it seems like the deed contains the usual conditions common in Fustat at the time. The value of the delayed marriage gift, 100 dinars, is very high. (AA)
