Common Land in the Carolingian Central Netherlands Common Land in the Carolingian Central Netherlands Student: Lucas E. Helder Date of submission: 21 June 2021 Student number: 4291018 Supervisor: Dr. F. C.W. Goosmann Course: RMA thesis Words: 39.979 Faculty: Humanities Study: Ancient, Medieval and Renaissance studies Abstract The purpose of this master thesis is to reopen the debate on the allocation of common land in early medieval Europe. More specifically, the question is asked: What evidence exists for common land in the Central Netherlands during the Carolingian period (c. 750-900 AD)? The first chapter introduces the geographical framework and investigates in which of the subregions the rights to waste- or woodland might have been shared by group(s) of peasants. The second chapter examines the historiographical debate on the emergence and existence of common land by analysing the Mark, Domanial and Scarcity theory, as being competing paradigms. In the third chapter the written sources for common land are introduced, through the analysis of opposing interpretations of the terms ‘marca’, ‘scara’ and ‘silva communis’. These terms have at least in the Mark theory been considered to indicate the presence of common land. In addition, in the fourth chapter, some archaeological clues for the presence or absence of common land are examined. As a result, it is suggested that the evidence for the presence of common land in the Carolingian Central Netherlands remains highly ambiguous. The existence of common land can therefore, on the basis of the available evidence, not be proven nor disproven. 2 Table of contents Abstract .................................................................................................................................. 2 Maps ....................................................................................................................................... 6 Tables ..................................................................................................................................... 6 Introduction .............................................................................................................................. 7 I.

  • Versatile Land, High Versus Low. Diverging Developments in the Eastern Netherlands1
    ARTICLES VERSATILE LAND, HIGH VERSUS LOW. DIVERGING DEVELOPMENTS IN THE EASTERN NETHERLANDS1 Bert Groenewoudt Cultural Heritage Agency P.O. Box 1600, 3800 BP Amersfoort, the Netherlands [email protected] Key words: landscape change, landscape biography, lowland reclamations, Middle Ages, Post-medieval Period, Eastern Netherlands Regional studies on landscape history are sometimes biased to some extent by a tendency to focus on the most intensively cultivated and investigated areas. Moreover, the concept of ‘landscape’ is at times applied uncritically, resulting in a homogenized and simplified reality, with interesting developments and contrasts being easily overlooked. It is the aim of this paper to show that fundamentally different historical developments may have occurred within one and the same “landscape”. The focus will be on the Pleistocene covers and landscapes of the eastern Netherlands. Here, already during prehistory, higher, dry areas of land were being transformed into relatively open, intensively used, compartmentalized and — to some degree — spatially stable landscapes that were very much “cultural”. The little-studied lower areas that surrounded these cultivated “islands”, on the other hand, remained essentially natural in character: forested, unpartitioned, extensively used and probably spatially dynamic in terms of spatial structure until well into the Middle Ages, when reclamation began. Unlike the situation in the fossilized “old land”, new and rapid physical geographical (and social) developments took place in these lowlands, especially from the medieval period onwards. This high-low dichotomy deserves more attention, also in other areas. Its social dimension will be discussed separately (Groenewoudt, in prep.) Introduction landscape zones, often covering the greater Whether or not they display characteris- part of research areas, tend to play a subor- tics of “landscape biographies”,2 some stud- dinate role.

This study focuses on cases where specific audiences and sites of display can be isolated. When portraits can be viewed in their original context, they speak not only to those elements intrinsic to the image such as symbolism or fashion, but also to issues extrinsic to the image: social practices, cultural ideals, and individual identities.

  • Historical Geography of the South-Vallei and Middle Betuwe
    Boniface in the Betuwe and the Vallei Christopher Rigg Local geography governed the movements of the missionaries who brought Christianity from Britannia to the northern Netherlands between about 680 and 760. The area of the Netherlands where their work was concentrated lies along the border between the modern provinces of Utrecht and Guelderland. That border follows a low-lying north-south valley, the Vallei or Guelder Vallei. To the south lies the flood-plain of the Rhine and the Meuse called the *Betuwe,1 part of Guelderland. It was known to the Romans as Batavia. Before the construction of dikes from about 1250, there was a network of channels. Each farm, church or other building was set on an artificial mound called terp or woerd. The centre of the missionaries' work was below the town of *Rhenen, which stands at the south-east point of the *Utrecht Hill Ridge overlooking the area where *Dorestad and *Trecht stood in the flood plain until both were destroyed by a severe flood in 1134.2 From the 4th/5th Century till 718, Rhenen was capital of the prosperous Kingdom of the *Frisiani.3 It traded with England, Denmark and Cologne. In 944 (g85 u106), it was the scene of the imperial council (rijksdag/Reichstag) of Otto the Great (912–973). By contrast, *Utrecht was uninhabited after the Romans departed until about 870.4 It lies 38 km north-west of Rhenen on the Utrecht Old Rhine, which ran north-west to the sea at Zandvoort west of Leyden (North Holland). That branch separates from the larger Lek at Wijk bij Duurstede 19 km west of Trecht and Dorestad.

  • De Gouw Salon
    De gouw Salon Anneke Koers Voorwoord 1 Een mens moet zich er goed van bewust zijn dat bijna alles wat zij of hij weet, ontleend is aan de geest van hen die haar of hem zijn voorgegaan. Wij hebben bijna niets van onszelf. Dat geldt ook op het terrein van de ontdekkingen, van het blootleggen van dingen die voorheen voor ons verborgen waren. Zo is Amerika vele malen ontdekt, en is duizenden malen het wiel uitgevonden. En nog steeds zijn er lieden, die menen dat zij het 'rad' nog eens moeten 'oetvind'n'. Dat geldt ook voor mezelf. Ik heb de Holterhoek ontdekt. Die plaatsaanduiding geeft de grenzen aan van het gebied waarvoor het waterschap in de dijkbrief van 1308 de verantwoordelijkheid kreeg. Vanaf het beekje de Hunnepe, dat ten zuiden van Deventer in de IJssel uitkwam en dat later de Dortherbeek zou heten, tot voorbij Wilsum. Het gebied dat in dit boek wordt behandeld omvat één van de oude Overijselse steden, te weten Deventer, en het zuidelijke gedeelte van Salland dat bestaat uit de plattelandsgemeenten Batmen, Diepenveen, Holten, Olst, Ommen, Raalte en Wije. Inleiding 2 Salon was de naam van een Frankische gouw in het westen van wat nu Overijssel is. De grenzen liepen waarschijnlijk samen met de IJssel, de Overijsselse Vecht, het Zwarte Water (afgeleid van zwet wat grens betekent), de Regge en de Schipbeek. De naam Salland (die tegenwoordig een groter gebied omvat) is hiervan afgeleid. Aan de overkant van de IJssel lag Felua (Veluwe); in het noordwesten van Salon lag de gouw Swifterbant aan de monding van de IJssel en het Zwarte Water, maar in de vroege Middeleeuwen is deze gouw grotendeels weggespoeld; ten noorden van de Vecht lag Treanth (Drenthe), in het oosten grensde Salon aan Twente; ten slotte lag stroomopwaarts de IJsselgouw (Hisloa, Isloi).
