Subfonds TR-VGMA/160 - Appointment register N°160, Jerusalem Cedīd Esās

Global extent: 142 pages, 760 records; 9 selected and described items

In 160 Jerusalem Cedīd Esās, there are 142 pages; however, only 46 pages include records. Out of the total of 760 records, between 1 and 137 are appointment records for the awqāf of Jerusalem. The records of the awqāf of the Maghariba neighborhood after 1882 are written on different pages. The ʿatīḳ and cedīd appointment registers are therefore highly consistent, and should be examined with an integrated approach. While the Cedīd registers start with the last record in the ʿatīḳ registers, references to ʿatīḳ registers are also indicated. The appointment records are brief, but further detail can be found in the notes. If more explanation is needed, the notes indicate that other registers, particularly the tafṣīl registers, should be consulted for a detailed description of the appointment process.
