Description

Rent receipt, confirming Av[raham] Gatenio's payment of 50 kuruş during the months of Kislev and Tevet. This receipt may have been issued for a property that was held in the qodesh of the "Maṣrīyīn" congregation and was thus signed/stamped by a communal official Yeshūʿa Zeyn. Given that the Ottoman kuruş is mentioned, which was not in wide circulation until after 1703, it is possible to estimate this document's dating as eighteenth- or nineteenth-century (the paleography also matches this designation). MCD.
