Persian Qalamdan - Translation Request

[ALEX]

Kwiatek,

Thank you so much for such incredible insights and translation. This is truly amazing to be able to read the text which appears to be very unusual where a date was written in words instead of numbers, and it is astonishing you were able to interpret it.

Do you know how common it was for the date to be written in abjad chronogram, and where it was used the most?

I also did not see identified Central Asian qalamdans before, this makes it an interesting discovery, thanks to you!!!!

You are very welcome. Abjad chronograms are not that uncommon, though they don’t always add up correctly! This was a relatively straightforward one. A Central Asian qalamdan is certainly very unusual
