A quick definition of contrarotulator:

Term: CONTRAROTULATOR

Definition: A contrarotulator was a person who collected and managed money for the government in England a long time ago. There were different types of contrarotulators, like the one who collected taxes or the one who managed the king's household. They were responsible for making sure the government had enough money to do its job.

A more thorough explanation:

A contrarotulator (pronounced kon-truh-roh-chuh-lay-tur or kon-truh-roh-tyuh-lay-tur) is a historical term that comes from the Latin word "controller." It refers to a person who was responsible for collecting and managing funds on behalf of the Crown or other government office.

In England, there were different types of contrarotulators, such as:

  • Contrarotulator custumarum - controller of the customs
  • Contrarotulator hospitii domini regis - controller of the king's household
  • Contrarotulator pipae - controller of the pipe, an officer who collected debts due to the Exchequer

For example, the contrarotulator custumarum would have been responsible for collecting taxes on imported goods, while the contrarotulator hospitii domini regis would have managed the finances of the king's household.

Overall, a contrarotulator was an important figure in the financial management of the government, ensuring that funds were collected and allocated properly.
