Description

Recto: Table of entries in Arabic script and Greek/Coptic numerals, presumably accounts. Faded and difficult to read. Shows signs of having been used in a book binding. Verso: Table of book titles in Arabic script. Dating: ca. 11th–13th century. The books are Christian, and after each entry the language is specified: Arabic (ʿArabī), (Bohairic?) Coptic (Qibṭī), or Sahidic Coptic (Ṣaʿīdī). Some have multiple languages. Titles include: - Kitāb al-Rahbana [The Book of Monasticism], in Coptic with some Arabic - Kitāb [Taf]sīr al-Injīl [Commentary on the Gospel] by Ibn al-Ṭayyib (a well-known scholar, d. 1043), in Arabic - Kitāb al-Maʿmūdiyya [The Book of Baptism], in Coptic - Kitāb Mazāmīr [Psalms], in Coptic - Kitāb Taqdīs al-Māʾ wa-Taklīl(?) wa-Takhlīl(?), in Coptic with some Arabic - Kitāb [...] Qadāsāt(?) Rūmī wa-Qadās(?) Kyrillos (? كيرللس), in Coptic; followed by the note "with me" - Kitab Rasāʾil Būluṣ wa-[... ... ...] [The Epistles of Paul?], in Arabic - Kitāb Dāniyāl [The Book of Daniel], in Sahidic - And several more. The leftmost column is partially concealed in the digitized images; the fragment will need to be adjusted to be fully read.
