Description

Substantial fragment of an elaborate, calligraphic calendar, in Hebrew, giving corespondences between the Hebrew and Islamic calendars. A year does not appear anywhere, but it is quite late, probably 18th or 19th century. At the bottom there is a comment on the (level of?) the Nile on the 2nd of Tammuz, as well as a prayer for agricultural prosperity in the coming year.
