Content

A fragmentary receipt indicating a payment made in wheat, although the specific quantity is lost due to damage, but likely around 30 mann. The names of the payer and the recipient are missing from the document. However, the mention of an order of payment (barāt) pertaining to a person named Rashīd al-Dīn can be found in the third line. The phrase can be completed as [ba-ḥukm-i] barāt-i Rashīd al[-Dīn-i Akhrang], who is also documented in another receipt (Firuzkuh 58).
