Description

Accounts in Judaeo-Arabic. Late, probably 16th- or 17th-century based on the paleography. The accounts are detailed and well-preserved enough that there may be an Islamic-calender year on the recto or verso (one of the entries gives the month Muḥarram). There are also few blocks of text in paragraph form. One entry on the recto mentions Cairo's Nile port of Būlāq. The main heading on the verso mentions the shop of a certain Ḥayyīm Qaṣīn/Qaḍīn (קצין). Requires further examination.
