Description

State document, in Arabic script. One line in a chancery hand. Mentions farming and possibly the Egyptian village of Banī Murra (near Asyūṭ) — although the shape of the mīm is quite different than in ومن, and grammatically a group of people is expected rather than a locality. It may be referring to the members of the tribe Banū Murra (or Banū X).
