Subventio Generalis
The ''subventio generalis'' (or "general aid"), also known as ''collecta'', was a direct tax in the medieval Kingdom of Sicily. Origins The ''subventio generalis'' had its origins in the obligation of the holders of fiefs in the Kingdom of Sicily to provide military service to the monarchs. They were required to serve in the royal army without compensation for maximum 90 days for each 20 ounces of their annual income. They could get rid of this irksome duty, if they pay a special fee, known as ''adohamentum'' or ''adoha''. Most barons and counts preferred to pay the fee which thus developed into a tax already under the Norman kings of Sicily. The landowners collected the fee from their tenants, thus in practice the peasants were to pay the ''adoha''. Those who lived in the royal demesneall burghers and the majority of the peasantrywere subjected to levies in money or in kind, known as ''collecta''. The monarchs could in theory freely demand such levies, only their fear of riots lim ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
