Cairo Genizah : Legal document

Cairo Genizah

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Record of the testimony of Tiqva, known as Rajāʾ (רגא, ‘hope’) b. ʿAzariah the cantor, concerning someone from Damascus whose name is only partially preserved as ‘known as the son of the hod-carrier’ (אלטיאן, though possibly to be read אלעיאן). Although not much of the document is preserved, it was probably all in Hebrew, suggesting a date early in the 11th century. </p>
