Documentos hebreos de Plasencia

The present publication includes two historical documents, one in Hebrew, the second in transliterated Hebrew-Spanish, discovered in the Plasencia Cathedral Archives sewn to a bill of sale. The bill of sale was published in Sefarad 59 (1999) pp. 275-279 by Marciano de Hervás. The Hebrew document, dated in Plasencia on September 26, 1461, is a power of attorney signed by Yento Abenataf authorizing his mother doña Vellida to freely dispose of the inheritance pertaining to his deceased father and, most particularly, his share of the sale of the house. The aljamiado document, dated in Plasencia on September 22, 1462, is a public document attesting to the payment that doña Vellida admits having received for the sale of the house
