On recto there is a list of medical books in Judaeo-Arabic. Respectively on the non-naturals, colic, and diet (אלאשיא אלכארגה ען אלטביעיה, רסאלה פי אלקולנג, אלאגדיה). There are numbers underneath each, perhaps prices. There is then a poem (qaṣīd) in Hebrew. On verso there is a different book list in different handwriting, this one clearly business accounts. It *may* be in the handwriting of Abū l-Bayān Moshe b. Levi ha-Levi, and Abū l-Faḍl Ibn Bayān who appears in line 2 *may* be his son. Other people mentioned are Ibn al-Dayyān, Abū l-Thanā', Ibn al-Mashmiaʿ(?), Abū Saʿīd al-Ṭabīb, and Abū l-Faraj b. Abū l-Riḍā.

Account of goods sent by Nahray b. Nissim to Abu Ishaq Barhun b. Ishaq ha-Tahirti, ca. 1046. It begins with an account of the balance of what remained from the previous year, and then summarizes Nahray's business activities and the shipments he sent to Abu Ishaq in the last two years, including goods like pearls, beads, clothes, and fabrics. It seems like Nahray partnered with ha-Tahiriti in addition to working independently. (Information from Gil, Kingdom, Vol. 2, #273) VMR
