WHAT DOES HIDAGE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Hide (unit)

In early Anglo-Saxon England the hide was, probably, an amount of land sufficient to support a household. Later on it was used to assess how many men a landowner would have to provide for public obligation to the crown. It was also used as the basis for a land-tax known as "geld" to pay off raiding Vikings. This form of the tax eventually became known as "Danegeld". Ultimately the kings of England continued to collect "geld" for their own purposes. During the Anglo-Saxon period the hide was not a fixed area of land. After the Norman Conquest, the Normans tried to standardise the land-tax being collected at a stated rate per hide with the hidage assessments of each manor being included in the Domesday Book of 1086. The land-tax system based on the hide continued to be used until the end of the 12th century.
