Zusammenfassung

Thanks to the light thrown on them by the documents contained in the cartulary of the monastery of Celanova, the villae of Rabal and Bobadela provide valuable evidence concerning the internal organization of what in the 10th and 11th centuries was, and in all probability had long been, the basic unit of population. Analysis reveals a firmly established but flexible structure based on the distinction among dwelling sites, cultivated land and uncultivated areas that allowed adaptation to changing social conditions and to perdure far into the future.
