Abstract

The goal of this paper is to make known a tax-collection system that was as widely used in fifteenth-century Castile as is little known today: the fieldad. Among other things, in this essay I will be presenting the fieldad as a common, unexceptional system that is an integral part of leasing (as opposed to an independent or parallel method) and describing its core role in the fiscal business.
