Stele of Ardut

Provenance Girona
Chronology Second half of the 14th century
Material Limestone
Registration MHJ084
SectionCemetery

This small fragment of the tombstone has not made it possible to identify the person. The name Ardut is not mentioned in Girona, either in Hebrew or Latin documents. However, in Huesca (Aragon), there was an entire family of physicians called Avinardut, or Ibn Ardut, between the 14th and 15th centuries.

Translation:
He is buried in [this] tomb...
Ardut. Blessed be the memory of him...
