| Summary: | This article traces the whereabouts of a small number of Arabic documents from the early Islamic period that were written on papyri excavated in Nessana (Israel). Most of the papyri unearthed at this Negev village went to the Morgan Library in New York, but these few Arabic texts remained in Jerusalem, where they were mostly forgotten until recently. Two of them are edited and translated here for the first time, and a third is republished with a revised reading. |
