This volume contains an index of the personal names of the founders, trustees of waqfs as well as some of the officers. The biographical information is significant for local history as well as the “inner” history of the empire. This index also contains short lives of military commanders, religious functionaries, sultans’ wives, eunuchs, etc. The index of geographic places identifies Ottoman and modern names of villages and mahalles. Then come the subject matter index and the glossary of terms. The glossary includes useful information for all researchers of Ottoman history.
The present inventory sheds light upon one of the significant subjects of Ottoman social and economic history on the basis of first hand archival documents.
