Remarks

This entry refers to a specific note written in Syriac within MS British Library Add. 14,737, dated to 1332 (p. 254). The note is significant for its mention of Famagusta and a landlord with the title 'Sir', indicating the level of acculturation of Syrian migrants in a Cypriot context while maintaining the use of the Syriac language for record-keeping (p. 254).
