תיאור

Marriage document. A torn, faded and damaged ketubah. The name שמריה Shemarya is preserved, probably the bride's or groom's father. The marriage gift is 50 dinars. Although the date is not preserved we can date it to 1176 onward, thanks to the appearance of the stipulation regarding the bride's ritual bath after menstruation, enacted by Maimonides in 1176 (see M.A Friedman, "Social Realities in Egypt and Maimonides' Rulings on Family Law” Maimonides as Codifier of Jewish Law [N. Rakover ed., Jerusalem 1987], p. 230), and appearing in almost every ketubah from this year on (e.g ENA 3811.2). Here only few words from this stipulation appear in l. 11. Hebrew and Aramaic. AA
