The author's name on the title page is Muḥammad b.ʿArabshāh. Unclear handwriting. The edges of the papers are slightly trimmed. Some pages are harmed by bookworms. Several corrections and comment notes throughout the manuscript, but not very extensive. The topics of each page are described in the margins first in red ink, and later on by green ink (which sometimes corrects the red announcements). The chessboard layout is found on 107a and the Uyghur alphabet on 110b (which are missing in some manuscripts). Latin Writings on the first page.
