Description

Administrative document, possibly. In Arabic script. Specific genre and purpose unclear. Mentions garments and fabrics (kiswa, mandīl sūsī, sufra Iskandārī) and the phrase فوجد الذي باسم المذكور من, and also warehouses (shuwān), probably of fabric. On the verso, some magical doodles and some names in Judaeo-Arabic: Kulayb, Sittūna, Thamna(?) bt. Levi, Sitt al-Ahl, Waḥshiyya(?), Abū l-Khayr. Needs further examination.
