Description

Fragment of a release in the hand of Ḥalfon b. Menashshe (1100–38). May have to do with India traders. Release formulae include "and no business and no partnership... and no aromatic wood and no ambergris and no civet... and no clothing..." (cf. PER H 21 + Moss. VII,39 (PGPID 7024) for similar formulae). Also mentions "our father."
