Description

Lower fragment: Fragment of a legal document. Appears to be a bill of sale (bayʿ jalb) for an enslaved man (ghulām) for the low sum of 11 dinars. Mentions that "he tried to escape several times and thieved. . . ." Also mentions the name Avraham known as Ibn Ṣandal. There are then (unusual) references to the opinions of different people and someone who says "not even for 50 dinars."
