Description

Legal document written and signed by Yeḥiʾel b. Elyaqim (active 1213–33). Quite faded. It seems that al-Rayyis Abū Saʿd gives half of a house to his daughter Sitt al-Riyāsa and her husband Efrayim. One phrase reads, "I feared lest this matter become known to the Muslims." Also signed by Yeshuʿa b. Sar Shalom ha-Kohen. (Information in part from Goitein's index card.)
