The Cairo Geniza, alternatively spelled Genizah, is a collection of some 400,000 Jewish manuscript fragments and Fatimid administrative documents that were kept in the genizah or storeroom of the Ben Ezra Synagogue in Fustat or Old Cairo, Egypt.

Common law in medieval Europe was a customary legal system based on judicial decisions and traditions. It contrasted with civil law, relying on written codes. Common law prescribed punishments for crimes, including fines, imprisonment, corporal punishment, banishment, restitution, and execution for serious offenses. The legal system and punishments varied across regions and time periods.
