תיאור

Report from Tyre to the chancery of al-Malik al-Afḍal concerning military and administrative affairs on the coast of Palestine, dating probably to 1108 CE. Same scribe (and possibly same document as) T-S AS 129.149 + T-S Ar.39.280 + T-S AS 116.11 + T-S NS 137.20 + T-S NS 207.44 + AIU I.C.73 + T-S NS 238.99 + T-S NS 244.84. This segment describes how an unidentified enemy gained control of (iḥtawat ʿalā) ʿAsqalān and had ambitions to conquer ʿAkkā. However, the king and his cavalry were victorious over them. Someone believed that "the sultan of Egypt has no power" but this was mere envy. Reused for Hebrew dirges on verso (different scribe and Hebrew content than the other report from Tyre). ASE
