A ''greater łan'' (also Franconian, King's, Old Polish) consisted of 43.2 morgs = 23 to 28 hectares. A ''lesser łan'' (Chełmno łan) was 30 morg ≈ 17,955 hectare. The term eventually derives from German ''Lehen'', "fee" (feudal land tenure).Aleksander Brückner: Słownik Etymologiczny Języka Polskiego. Kraków: Krakowska Spółka Wydawnicza, 1927, p. 306. The term ''łan'' was also used to indicate an average size of a peasant's tenured farm. Łan was further subdivided into ''zagony'' ("belts") and further into ''skiby'' ("slices"). In medieval times the size of a ''łan'' was anywhere between 3 and 50 hectares, but from the 13th century to 1857 in ''Great Lesser Poland (with Podkarpacie Subcarpathian Voivodeship or Subcarpathia Province (in pl, Województwo podkarpacki ...
