Abstract
On the verso of two private deeds from the San Gregorio Armeno monastery in Naples, concerning the activities of some local Jews in the 13th century, a few lines in Hebrew have been discovered, never noticed up to this day despite the fact that the documents have been studied several times before (see Sefer yuhasin 1: 51-66). In the first document, dated February 2nd, 1235, the Jew Geschoda, known as Ganga, son of Ganio and Trocta, renews a deed drafted in 1211 between the brothers David and Daniel Eliseo, dealing with property rights on a house in Piazza Portanova in Naples. On the document it can tentatively be read: «Act which was done by David to Daniel his brother from the sale of his part (?) of [the] house»). The second deed, dated March 23th, 1243, is a chartula de pignu in which the christian Sergio Guindazzo transfers to the Jewish physician Ya‘aqov son of Bonaventura the income from two plots of land for one year, to satisfy a debt of 12 ounces of gold. On the verso of the parchment, barely readable, we found: «This is the charge deed of Sergius (?) Guindazzo»).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
