Abstract :This paper studies a defective manuscript of the history of Ardalān which consists of 142 folios. The manuscript is part of the Gulpāygānī collection, held in the makhtūtāt collection of the Gulpāygānī Library in Qum. It is an unknown continuation to the Ardalān chapter of the Sharaf-nāma which librarians sometimes called it muntakhab-i Sharaf-nāma ‘An Anthology of the Sharaf-nāma’ in their internal records. The aim of the present paper, however, is to track down its provenance by means of describing its physical characteristics and contents.
