Ledger of detailed and unusually legible accounts in Arabic script. Dated: 545–47 AH = 1150–53 CE. (The individual entries have more precise dates.)

There are many detailed entries accompanying the numerical calculations and one in particular on the recto offers a sense of their purpose: "del libro de lo ke me deven la gente / from the book of what people owe me" (l. 6-7r). This phrase can be found throughout other entries on the recto and verso, thus pointing to the likelihood that many of these figures express debts owed.

In its present state, the account consists of a single vertical bifolio (a format typically used in Fatimid accounting), which now contains only the details of the production of the village of Basūṭ Nahīsah. Originally, however, the account was also meant to contain details of the production of the other four villages, which implies either that a part of the account is missing or that the account was left unfinished. […] In lines 17–19, the scribe was supposed to sum up and account for the whole agricultural production of the five villages after each new entry (min al-ghallāt: qamḥ, šaʿīr, fūl).
