محتوا

A fragment of an almost complete land sale document concerning the sale of a grove for the price of 150  yarmaqs. This is one of six land sale documents written in the late eleventh century, collected by Denison Ross, of which photos were kept at SOAS. Formally, these documents differ from the non-Muslim deeds of land sale in the collection, which according to Erdal follow Chinese models. Erdal used these photos while the whereabouts of the originals were (and remain) unknown. Provenance seems to be a garden outside Yarkand where the documents were  found in 1911. For details, see Erdal’s article (see Publications).

1 This is that document for which they were the witnesses. The names of the witnesses have been written down at
2 the end of this document. I, ʿUṯmān, the son of
3 commander Bäk Tüzün and the younger brother of commander ʿAlī, have, being clear in mind and in
4 perfect health, sold a piece of land in Rabul, in the
5 depression (?) of Sökmän bäg. I sold it to Master Isḥaq,
6 the son of Ḥusayn, with its four boundaries, for a grove of fresh (trees).
7 The value of this grove is 150 yarmaqs. I have completely received its (i.e. my land's) worth. I have
8 handed over the plot: The property is master Isḥaq's.
9 As boundaries of the plot there are, on the first side counsellor Yūsuf’s land, (and) on the (other) three sides,
10 Master Isḥaq's land. Whoever makes a claim on it, may his claim be void
11 This document was written in the year 483,
12 in the blessed month of Rağab.
13 I, Käčmiš, am witness I, Aδiġ, am witness
14 I, Dāʾūd, am witness I, Yūsuf the ferry-man, am witness
15 I, Ya'qūb, the son of the ferry-man, am witness I, 'Alī
the Persian, am witness
