Fragments of the Sīrat ‘Antar - 3

Object identifier MSB3
Type Manuscript

Notes

Three blocks of scattered folios each of which probably contain parts of Sīrat ‘Antar b. Šaddād, the epic cycle relating to the Arab hero ‘Antar b. Šaddād. It is not possible to identify to which part of the story they refer. The three blocks of folios are unbound. They have been damaged by molds and some leaves are stuck together. The conditions are so bad that the writing is often illegible.
