Description

Accounts in Ladino with western Arabic numerals. Dating is likely 18th- or 19th-century based on the paleography. The heading on the recto states: "Kuento de Yiṣḥaq Ṣaḥān del ʿasfūr (from Judaeo-Arabic) por la tomada[?]", which may relate to some type of avian product (possibly feathers). The heading on the verso states: "Lo ke fue pagado a Ḥajjī Alī al-Gālād debasho (=debajo) de su kuento". Many of the monetary figures are listed in abū ṭāqas, Austrian thalers, which became a common form of payment in Cairo during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The paleography also matches this dating estimate. MCD.
