Letter Mentioning the Fayyum
Description
letter of N��jid b. Muslim to ìAbd All��h b. Asìad deals with several tax related issues, possibly involving taxes paid in kind. N��jid asks ìAbd All��h to send him someone, possibly the same person responsible for the tax-collection (of sheep?) in a village and a hayyiz he refers to later in his letter. N��jid mentions that he has sent draft animals (daww��b) to ìAbd All��h perhaps to transport the taxes, and he asks ìAbd All��h to hand over the taxes in one payment. On two matters he orders ìAbd All��h not to act before he receives a letter from him.;The following documents are addressed to the same recipient: P.Mich.Inv. 5558(1); 5629; 5624; 5627; 5578(1); 5558(2); 5578(2); 5578(3); 5578(4); 5578(5); 5578(7); 5578(6); 5610; 5613(B); 5625 (A); 5619; 5613(A); 5632; 5578(9); 5622; 5609; 5621; 5623; 5625(1); 2526(B); 5631; 5578(8).
