Description

Legal documents in Judaeo-Arabic related to real estate transactions that are dated 1784/85CE according to FGP. The list format of these documents suggests that the page may have once been bound as part of a broader court register. There is much damage to the fragment but on occasion the closing line of each document is clear enough that the Aramaic word "established / קיים" appears– which is a common term that seals a legal document. The first document on the verso is signed with a difficult calligraphic hand yet within the document's first line, the name Yehuda b. Mauza[?] is legible. In the following line the name Masʿūd "מסעוד" appears. MCD.
