Description

“Concords” are a basic legal instrument of the rural mountain communities of Western Europe during the medieval and modern centuries. They are a clear exponent of the pactism between collectives to resolve issues ensticed by the judicial way or agreements to avoid reaching the lordly or royal courts. The document presented is a good example of these agreements and consists of the pact on territorial limits and respective communal rights of use between the communities of the Honor of Galliner, i.e. Vilamitjana, Montesquiu, Galliner and Pui de l’Anell, and the rural community of Orcau, with the participation of the respective feudal lords, the bishop of Urgell and Ramon Roger d’Orcau.
