Description

Marriage contract (ketubba). Dated: Tuesday, 17 Elul 16[29?] Seleucid, which would be 1318 CE. (Goitein suggests 1292–97 CE, but that does not seem possible.) Under the reshut of the Nagid Avraham b. David (Avraham II) Maimonides. If indeed this is from 1318 CE, it might be the latest known mention of Avraham II as Nagid. Groom: Shemuel b. Shela ha-Talmid. Bride: Muwaffaqa bt. Yeshuʿa, a widow. No dowry mentioned. 5+20=25. Information in part from Goitein's index card.
