JRL SERIES C 55

Lists in Judaeo-Arabic that mention a wide array of potable and other items such as meat, bread, beans, soap, mastic[?] "מסתכא" (l. 2r), and many other types. The paleography helps to estimate the dating of this document as 18th/19th-century. Along the far left side of the recto Jerusalem is mentioned (l. 6r) and the coinage "metaqil / מתאקיל" which may indicate gold for prices connected to the items listed (given the mention of "וזן / weight" in the same entry: l. 16-17r). The same recordkeeping format continues onto the verso. MCD.
