Taken from: Trade and Traders in Muslim Spain: The Commercial Realignment of the Iberian Peninsula : 900-1500 By Olivia Remie Constable
Halfon b. Nethanel (in Aden) received a letter from a colleague in Muslim Spain, which noted in the margin that somebody had: bought ivory at five dirhams (per ounce?)
Note; the conclusion made from this remark is that even Muslim Spain would get its ivory from East Africa.
