Manuscript description
This manuscript is a part of Inbāʾ al-Ghumr indeed despite it bears the wrong title ''Kitāb Tārīkh Ibn al-Kāmil wa-huwa alladhī Dhakar al-ʿAjāʾib min al-Ḥawādith wa-l-Gharāyib min Sanat Tusuʿmāʾa''. The book starts with the events of the year 812 AH and ends with the year 850 AH. Sometimes the copyist mistakenly writes the year Tusuʿmāʾa (900) instead of Thamānmāʾa (800). The first page is written by a more modern hand, and the dates in it were wrong and have been corrected by another person. Very extensive use of the margins for highlights of the contents, corrections, or notes. Many notes describe the relationship between the author and the persons mentioned in the book. The book ends on f.225a, while the last leaf (which is also from the book) is randomly placed at the end of the manuscript.
