Term: EXTRA FEODUM
Definition: Extra feodum means "out of his fee" or "out of the seigniory."
Simply put, it refers to something that is outside of a person's ownership or control.
For example, if a lord granted a piece of land to a vassal, anything that the vassal did with that land would be within the lord's control. However, if the vassal did something outside of that land, it would be considered extra feodum and not subject to the lord's authority.
EXTRA FEODUM
Extra feodum is a Latin term that means "out of his fee" or "out of the seigniory."
An example of extra feodum is when a lord grants a piece of land to a vassal outside of the lord's own land. This land is considered to be extra feodum because it is outside of the lord's own seigniory.
Another example of extra feodum is when a vassal receives a grant of land from a lord that is not part of the vassal's original fief. This land is also considered to be extra feodum because it is outside of the vassal's original fee.
The examples illustrate the definition of extra feodum by showing how it refers to land that is granted outside of a lord's or vassal's original land holdings. This land is considered to be separate from the original fee or seigniory and is subject to its own set of rules and obligations.
