A large Exchequer compilation was completed towards the end of the century, in which may be found the names of thousands of tenements or land-holdings in areas where the church had owned land for its returns in produce or money. It relates to the ‘temporality’ of the Scottish church, which can be defined as rental income in money and kind from the tenants of church-lands, as opposed to the ‘spirituality’, which consisted mainly of teinds.1 Many of these lands had been feued or leased by the church around the time of the Reformation, i.e. the religious settlement marked by the enactments in 1560 of the Reformation Parliament. The evident purpose of the compilation was to produce a comprehensive record with up-to-date particulars of what was receivable by every church body or other benefice holder from their lands throughout Scotland. For that body or person was obliged to make over one third of those revenues to the crown, pursuant to the agreement hammered out at the Convention in 1561. These ‘thirds’, with the teinds, which were the subject of the ‘Books of Assumption of the Thirds of Benefices’ (see Assumption, Introduction), had been accepted as being the means by which the crown would fund the reformed ministry and the proposed plans for improvement of the nation’s education; but the process of assessment had been slow and halting. This major administrative record is found among the Exchequer documents held by the National Archives of Scotland. It comprises under the above title (reference NAS E49/2/1 and 2) two bound volumes of folios, readily accessible and neatly written. It is to be hoped that a printed transcription of the whole may become possible, as it is a valuable resource for those working in economic and social studies, and for those interested in local and family history, as well as in place-names. The entries in each volume are assembled sheriffdom by sheriffdom. The table below, derived from the volumes’ index pages, gives the starting 1 ‘Church-lands might be set feu; these being accounted but the temporality and the teinds the spirituality’; James Dalrymple, Viscount of Stair, The Institutions of the Law of Scotland ii viii §8 (1681) (cited in Dictionary of the Older Scottish Tongue under temporalité ). The Journal of Scottish Name Studies 3, 2009, 1–14 2 Robin Campbell North Side of the Forth South Side of the Forth [E49/2/2] [E49/2/1] Orkney and Zetland 1 Linlithgow 1 Inverness 18 Striviling 33 Ergile & Tarbet 85 Edinburgh principall 46 Aberdene 103 Edinburgh within the Banff 155 Constabularie of Hadingtoun 79 Elgin and Forress 185 Berwick 111 Bute 221 Selkirk 145 Cromartie 225 Roxburgh 149 Narne 231 Peblis 193 Perth 240 Renfrew 210 Forfar 325 Lanerk 217 [372–498 are missing] Air 273 Kincardin 499 Wigtoun 319 Clackmannane 518 Dumfries 347 Stewartrie of Stratherne 524 Within the Stewartrie of Annandaill 365 Within the Stewartrie of Kirkcudbricht 369 Dumbartane 414v folio number for each sheriffdom. Within the sheriffdoms the names are grouped under parishes, monastic holdings, parsonages etc. The wide extent of the church’s ‘temporality’, covering the whole of Scotland, should not surprise us given the amount of land which the church held before the Reformation for the sake of the yields from agricultural units,2 with here and there the sites of other economic activity from which produce or rental income could be expected in country areas, e.g. fishings and coal-extraction. Transcribed below, as illustrating the potential interest of the record, is the entire section dealing with the kirklands in a single sizeable parish, Lesmahagow.3 2 ‘The typical 16th-century Scot, if there was such a person, was not a townsman but a countryman, a tenant-farmer. If he was lucky enough to live in good agricultural country it was highly likely that he would be a church tenant’ (Sanderson 1982, 103). 3 This is found in E49/2/1 at fos 254r–255v. ‘Charge of the Temporalitie of Kirk Landis’ & the parish of Lesmahagow 3 The whole of this parish was once owned by the church, as granted North Side of the Forth in 1144 by David I to the abbey of Kelso. The relevant charter (David I [E49/2/2] Chrs. no. 130) states that the king had granted to his foundation of Kelso Orkney and Zetland 1 Abbey ‘the church of Lesmahagow and all Lesmahagow’ (ecclesiam de Inverness 18 Lesmahagu et totam Lesmahagu), that the church was to be a cell of Kelso, Ergile & Tarbet 85 and that the abbot and monks of Kelso were to establish there a prior and Aberdene 103 monks of their order.4 Banff 155 After acquiring the land in the 12th century the Abbey feued certain Elgin and Forress 185 lands to vassals, who did not occupy the individual farms and were largely Bute 221 of Flemish origin.5 There was another period in the 16th century when Cromartie 225 feu-fermes were granted to non-resident occupiers, in particular the Narne 231 House of Hamilton6 from 1532. The rest of the parish’s farming land, Perth 240 once cultivated by or under the direction of lay brethren, became leased Forfar 325 for the most part to local farming tenant occupiers, particularly in the [372–498 are missing] central demesne area which was long to remain known as the Mains.7 As Kincardin 499 was happening with church lands elsewhere in Scotland,8 feu-ferme was Clackmannane 518 extended by charter to leading tenants who could afford the expenses Stewartrie of Stratherne 524 connected with such grants. This, encouraged by royal policy, gave the farmer heritable security. The church’s feu duty income might lessen with inflation but its coffers had an immediate boost by the premium or capital payment which was negotiated with the would-be feuar. A notable extension of feu-ferme by this abbey was the granting of feus on 31 4 This same charter records that the king ‘out of reverence for God and St Machutus’ (ob reverenciam Dei et Sancti Machuti) had granted the right of sanctuary to the church at Lesmahagow ‘within the four crosses which stand around it’ (infra quatuor cruces circumstantes). The existence of these crosses suggests that he was confirming an older sanctuary, rather than creating a new one. For more on these crosses, see Taylor, this volume. 5 For a good summary and analysis of the abbey’s strategy of granting land in feu- ferme to important local gentry (mainly Flemish in origin or descent) whose standing in the wider area was seen as potentially important to the abbey, see Smith 2008a and 2008b. This strategy was pursued to such an extent that ‘by 1203 only a fraction of the original royal grant was being exploited directly by the priory itself.

  • Progress in Colour Studies 2012: List of Abstracts
    Progress in Colour Studies 2012: List of abstracts Keynote lecture Prehistoric Colour Semantics: a Contradiction in Terms C. P. Biggam, University of Glasgow, UK The term prehistory indicates a time before written records, so how can we possibly understand the colour systems of prehistoric peoples? This paper will attempt to make a case, in relation to the distant past of the Indo-European family, that it is possible to provide a reasonable ‘reconstruction’ of certain concepts in languages for which there have been no living native speakers for many centuries. The argument will be presented that there are several disparate strands of evidence, all of them fragmentary, which can be brought together and viewed against the background of certain techniques and hypotheses employed by anthropologists, historical linguists, psychologists and archaeologists. The discussion will include indications, hints and evidence from the following: the colour systems of modern languages; colour category prototypes; the known techno-economic advances of prehistoric peoples; the identification of cognates in related languages; linguistic ‘primitives’; relative chronology; relative basicness; and the earliest Indo-European texts. It is hoped that the paper will provide a convincing argument that, because colour concepts can be approached from so many directions, this field provides one of the best chances we have to glimpse the workings of prehistoric minds.

    THE MYTHOLOGY, TRADITIONS and HISTORY OF MacDHUBHSITH ― MacDUFFIE CLAN (McAfie, McDuffie, MacFie, MacPhee, Duffy, etc.) VOLUME 2 THE LANDS OF OUR FATHERS PART 2 Earle Douglas MacPhee (1894 - 1982) M.M., M.A., M.Educ., LL.D., D.U.C., D.C.L. Emeritus Dean University of British Columbia This 2009 electronic edition Volume 2 is a scan of the 1975 Volume VII. Dr. MacPhee created Volume VII when he added supplemental data and errata to the original 1792 Volume II. This electronic edition has been amended for the errata noted by Dr. MacPhee. - i - THE LIVES OF OUR FATHERS PREFACE TO VOLUME II In Volume I the author has established the surnames of most of our Clan and has proposed the sources of the peculiar name by which our Gaelic compatriots defined us. In this examination we have examined alternate progenitors of the family. Any reader of Scottish history realizes that Highlanders like to move and like to set up small groups of people in which they can become heads of families or chieftains. This was true in Colonsay and there were almost a dozen areas in Scotland where the clansman and his children regard one of these as 'home'. The writer has tried to define the nature of these homes, and to study their growth. It will take some years to organize comparative material and we have indicated in Chapter III the areas which should require research. In Chapter IV the writer has prepared a list of possible chiefs of the clan over a thousand years. The books on our Clan give very little information on these chiefs but the writer has recorded some probable comments on his chiefship.

THE Gaelic Names of Plants, reprinted from a series of articles in the ‘Scottish Naturalist,’ which have appeared during the last four years, are published at the request of many who wish to have them in a more convenient form. There might, perhaps, be grounds for hesitation in obtruding on the public a work of this description, which can only be of use to comparatively few; but the fact that no book exists containing a complete catalogue of Gaelic names of plants is at least some excuse for their publication in this separate form.
