A very damaged fragment. The upper text block is the end of a legal query probably written by Shelomo b. Eliyyahu (active in the first third of the 13th century). Too little text remains to decipher, but it seems to be dealing with a house, an in-law, and daughters. Below the query another text in a different hand, possibly the responsum, as commonly found in such documents, but the text is too damaged to read and from the few readable words it seems to be dealing with an issue regarding the government. Instead, it is probably a second legal query: הדא טלב אן... ללס{ל?}טאן... אלסאכן... ראובן... תורינו... [שכרו] כפול מן השמים. AA. ASE.
Hebrew and Aramaic poetry.
Small fragment from a late list, might belong to a dowry (the word מהר can be read)
