ثيقة كشف على السواقى والمجرى السلطانى (دراسة وثائقية).Waṯīqat kašf ʿalā al-sawāqī wa-l-maǧrā al-sulṭānī (Dirāsa waṯā’iqiyya).
This research handles a documental study of a document copy registered in the second register of the High-Diwan Registers (al Dîwân al ‘Âlî) housed in the National Archives in Old Cairo (Fustât).
The document reveals the process of investigation and check-up carried out for the maintainance of the Sultan Water Wheels (sawâqî) of old Egypt and the Aquaduct during the Ottoman era in the 12th/18th century, specifically in 1181/1768 during the rule of Muḥamad Râqim Pasha (1181-1182 / 1767-1768).
The importance of this document is in the content of the legal actions of the check-up of each of the Water Wheels and the Aquaduct in order to re-build and clean-up the locations that required doing so, explaining the vital and crucial reasons that had led to this check-up : that is that the water supply ceased to reach the Citadel and it’s occupants as a result of the damage that occurred to sections of both the Aquaduct and the Water Wheels at various locations.
This document explains that this check-up was executed by the order and attendance of the Ottoman Pasha, as well as the attendance of the head judge and the high-ranking officers of the high-dîwân.
A group of high-ranking officers and engineers was specified by name in the document text designated as the checking committee ordered to detect the locations to be re-built, as well as measure and calculate the estimated costs required in Egyptian silver half fractions.- Ǧīhān Aḥmad ʿUmrān ( : 193490250)
