This sealed document was made to settle the quarrels and conflicts of Kamird-far and Bāb against Wahran and Mīr. All of these four men were brothers. In order to bring peace to the household, they agreed to equally share all their properties, including lands, houses, slaves, and slave-girls, and live together as brothers do. Three of the brothers (excluding Bāb), agree to share the slave-girl Zeran.
