In the hope that Dom does not get annoyed with me, I want to add a few things to translation as a Turkish speaker.
The inscription is: Amel-i Muhammed Ağa sahib ü malik Ahmed Ağa 1211 Work of Muhammed Agha, Owner Ahmed Agha H. 1211 (1796/97 AD) |

 Zifir it's a REAL pleasure when you feel that you'r not alone to get headache, and some one is backing you  I'M SERIOUS, no competition between us, just complementarity for the benefit of our fraternity at least, it is like that I understand my action here but definitively, I'm a damned stupid to have forget to translate the easiest part  thanks to have corrected that mess, because, datation is too rare, and too much important .. all the best à + Dom (who will be in a 3 weeks time in Istanbul .. Inch'Allah for a week, and Damascus 2 weeks before) |

Simply marvelous, Battara! I second Gonzalo's motion about posting plenty of pictures here once it arrives.
