# Later capitulary and estate texts print corvée and unfree rural labour under royal and church estates Date: 1880 ## The fact Capitulary and polyptych tradition as later public history prints labour dues on royal and monastic land. The dated carrier is that modern presentation of received estate-law. Coerced rural labour is a tightness-as-unfreedom path. ## Context Medium confidence on unique hour-series. High that unfree dues are the received rural machine. [Charlemagne](/people/charlemagne) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute. ## Evidence and sources Official heritage, Vatican-adjacent, or annalistic edition pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument. Official or archival record: Catholic Encyclopedia — Charlemagne (https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03610c.htm; New Advent). ## Significance Printed corvée is a labour-coercion path, not a 9th-century timesheet. Printed corvée is a labour-coercion path, not a 9th-century timesheet. ## What is established and what is not Established as a dated public record of this instrument. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions. The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit. ## People - Charlemagne: https://factrail.ai/people/charlemagne ## Drivers - Labour-Market Tightness: https://factrail.ai/drivers/labour-market-tightness ## Sources - https://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03610c.htm - https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/cambridge-companion-to-the-age-of-charlemagne/ ## Methodology https://factrail.ai/methodology Canonical: https://factrail.ai/facts/ch-corvee-labour
