Ancient Manuscript Review 98 : Antique Etiopia Quran ( 18th Century)

These are my another set of  manuscripts in juz form originated from Etiopia. Its believed to have been written in 18-19th century. This manuscript is written in Sudanese type calligraphy in black ink on western paper 11 lines to a page. I still need to do more research about this type of calligraphy. It looks in between Sudani & Somali calligraphy but definitely stemmed from Maghribi style. Brown leather binding with a flap.

This set is quite plain compared to my other Etiopian Quran. There is no decoration or illumination on the opening surah.

There are supposed to have 30 manuscripts ( 30 juzs) for the complete Quran. However I only managed to acquire 18 manuscripts out of 30. This is a very rare acquisition because we dont see many Etiopian Quran in the market or in international hands. I am blessed to have acquired these manuscripts. 
Look my other Etiopia Quran for comparison :
Etiopia Quran ( 30 volumes)
Etiopia Quran ( 3 volumes)
