Description

Draft of the beginning of a legal testimony. Location: Fustat. Dated 1151/52 CE (1463 Seleucid), under the reshut of Shemuel ha-Nagid. The case involves the Cairene trader (tājir) Abū l-Faraj Yeshuʿa b. Yosef and Abū l-Rabīʿ Sulaymān/Shelomo b. (Abū Zikrī) Yehuda ha-Kohen ha-Sar. The margins and verso are filled with Arabic script, mostly writing exercises, though there is also a phrase addressed to Abū l-Fakhr and the beginning of a petition to "al-maqām al-sharīf."
