A Self-Contained WorldThis simplified depiction lays out the basic elements of a manor and its village. Location along a river was vital not only for water and waste disposal, but to run the mill wheel that drove the round millstones that ground the grain into flour. This view indicates that the peasants used three-field cropping, by which the land is divided in thirds, leaving one third unused, or fallow, each year to allow it to revitalize itself. This technique took a much lighter toll on the land and meant that it could be reused for centuries.
Why is it called this?
