Bereishis and Shemos with Onkelus, including a translation by Rabbi Saadya Gaon.
The Bible was  by a professional scribe around the year 1500 in thin, square Yemenite handwriting with Tabrian nekudos and trop.
The pesukim are followed first by Onkelus and then by Rabbi Saadya Gaon's translation, with the mesorah written in the margins.
Attached is a review by Professor Benjamin Richler, former director of the Institute of Microfilmed Hebrew Manuscript in Jerusalem.
Some pages were completed from earlier Yemenite codices,. See pages 41-42, 66-67 and 146, in Shemos[9] [10] and from a later period , see pages 158-160.
