תיאור

Accounts in Judaeo-Arabic. Two bifolia with highly detailed entries. Currency: ashrafī. There is a date that is torn away on the final page: Adar I 5[... AM. The first entry in the upper right corner of image 2r mentions crimson silk, pepper, saffron, and "מלוון" silk (perhaps multi-colored). Other entries in image 2r mention: glass, silk, sesame, and possibly a list of books including the Babylonian Talmud: משנה עתיק פי׳ בבלי לרש׳. For how detailed the accounts are regarding transactions and goods, the number of names mentioned is correspondingly low. A certain Shelomo Sofer is mentioned in the last entry on the lower left corner of the image 2r but there are very few other full names (e.g. Avraham Alqī, 2v; Shemuʾel ha-Kohen, 2v). The final entry on the right side of 2v mentions a transaction for a "gold bar" or "gold ingot" (סביכה דהב) that weighs 13 dirhams, equivalent to ~40.625 grams (1 dirham = 3.125 grams). Requires further examination. MCD
