Note
In the MINPAKU Anthropology Newsletter for the National Museum of Ethonology in Osaka (No. 44, June 2017), Akiko M. Sumi identified Leiden Or. 14.303 as the 'Berber' version of the One Hundred and One Nights formerly owned by René Basset (1855-1924), and presumed lost. Nishimura also agrees with this assessment, and has integrated narratives from the Leiden manuscript into his appendices.
