Jens, that's simply not fair, to show such an intruiging PART of a piece and leave us tortured as to what the rest appears like.
While I realize the overall piece has nothing to do with your specific question, could I ask........ please? Mike |

Hi Mike,
Yes you are right - sorry. There are four inscriptions on this Haladie, but unfortunately the three of them are not very clear, only the one with the year 1221 (1807). |

Hi Jens,
This is something often found of Islamic weapons, a verse from the Quran Nasrun Min Allah, Wa fathun Qarib - Victory is from God and conquest is near. I've also seen it on war banners, probably Ottoman. |

Hi Jens,
I believe this one is an native Indian script, perhaps Devanagari or Gurmukhi ![]() ![]() |
