How to Search

General Search

Use keywords or phrases in any language to return matching or similar results across all fields. Arabic script searches will return both Arabic and Judaeo-Arabic transcription content.

Regular Expression Search

Use Hebrew or Arabic script to find precise matches in the transcriptions. See How to Search page for advanced use cases.

Cheat sheet:

  • If you're looking for a word with one missing letter, use a period. Two missing letters, use two periods or {2}. Increase the number in the curly brackets to increase the number of characters, or insert a range with a comma in between, ex. {0,5}.
  • If you don't know how many characters are missing, use .*.
  • If you know which characters you want, use square brackets to find multiple spellings, ex. [יו] for yud or vav.

  1. 3301LetterENA NS 71.23

    The sender reports (yunhī) on a man who owes him "anna hādhā l-rajul lahu ʿalayya" and seeks the addressee's help in settling his accounts. The addressee, whose name in the tarjama reads as "al-awḥad al-amīr Raḍī l-Dīn", is a military official (walī al-shadd) whom the sender promises to convey news of his area "anā ūkātibuka bi l-khabr". The accounts that the sender is asking the addressee's help in settling could be taxes as the "al-shadd" was a military officer, classified by al-Qalqashandī as belonging to the 'arbāb al-suyūf' 'masters of the sword'.

  2. 3302State documentT-S Ar.42.162

    Deals mainly with business matters but contains many petition-like phrases, maybe to soften the sender's impatience, and all the information about accounting. Also contains the "yujaddid taqbīl al-arḍ" phrase "the slave renews the kissing of the ground" (for the usage of the phrase, see Khan, ALAD, pg. 313, 433), and the phrase "fī khidma mālik al-riqq" (see Khan, ALAD, pg. 345, 368, 434). […] Reused on verso for dense accounts in Arabic script, mentioning numerous materia medica.
