Fragment dated to the late 13th-14 century. It is decorated with white calligraphy and an emblem on the edge. Some Arabic lettering is visible on the surface, but no words are legible. The emblem on the edge is similar to a tricolored shield found during the Mamluk reign, but those most often had a middle field in another color. The emblem has three fields that are associated with the emirs of the second half of the 13th century.
