Description

Accounts mainly in Ladino, written in the same hand but not necessarily from the same notebook (the pages are not all the same size, and the grids on different fragments are in purple ink vs. red/brown ink). Lists of names in Ladino which follow a common formula repeating the phrase "la mujer de X." There are also Greek influenced names such as "la mujer de Nicoli ẓu Demitri". The list's structure and the paleography help to estimate the dating as 18th/19th-century. One fragment additionally contains a list of donations (?) from individuals including Yaʿaqov Bibas, a Mosseri, and a Bialobos. MCD.
