The contents of the manuscript are mainly from a history of the world compiled by Rashid al-Din (died 1318) for the Mongol ruler Ilkhan Oljetu in 1930. 1307. It is not simply a copy of Rashid al-Din's work but a hybrid manuscript with a tangled history made more complex by its dispersal. This page comes from a group of pages prepared under Rashid al-Din's supervision and later included in the Timurid manuscript.
