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.

    Accounts in Judaeo-Arabic and Hebrew dealing with funds from a wide variety of Ottoman tax farm districts (iltizām) and their respective tax farmers (multazim). […] The scribal hands are distinct enough from the state accounts that they may be of no relation and were probably recorded once the bifolio became scrap paper. The scribe who recorded these accounts likely held a post within the Ottoman fiscal administration of Egypt given the extent of their knowledge of tax farm funds throughout the entire province.
