virgataとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源 1

A calque of the 古期英語 gerd (“branch, rod, yard, yardland”) formed from virga + -āta

名詞

virgāta f (genitive virgātae); first declension

1. The yardland or virgate, an English land measure usually comprising ¼ of a hide and notionally equal to 30 acres.

使用する際の注意点

The hide was originally intended to represent the amount of land farmed by a single household but was primarily connected to obligations owed to the Saxon and Norman kings and thus varied greatly from place to place. Around the time of the Domesday Book under the Normans, the hide was usually but not always the land expected to produce £1 (1 Tower pound of sterling silver) in income over the year, meaning the yardland was expected to produce 60 d. (3 Tower ounces of sterling silver). In fact, the yardland became associated with its own obligations and thus also varied, in some places being reckoned as one sixth of a hide rather than one quarter.
