Description

Mercantile letter in Judaeo-Arabic. Two fragments comprising the left half of both recto and verso. (The other fragments might be identifiable in part based on the scribe's habit of forgetting the feminine הא as an honorific for the addressee, and going back to add it in as a superscript.) Dating: 11th or early 12th century. Concerning Mūsā Ibn al-Majjānī; bringing letters to the ḥaver; sending something with Ibrāhīm; "brown (people) or a slave" (sumr aw raqīq) but the context is missing; and quantities of rubāʿīs (quarter-dinars). Join: Alan Elbaum.
