AB - During the Carolingian age the size of ‘mansus’, the land-holding unit of peasants, in the classic manors was not fixed, but from one estate to the other and even within the same estate considerable variations are found. In a word, the size of mansus varied according to regions. As a rule, the average size of mansus was about 10 hectare in the central part of the Paris basin including the region of Paris and the Champagne districts, 15∼16ha in its periphery such as the area contiguous to the Lowland of Flanders, and around 13ha in its outside plateaus such as Hainault. Especially in th wooded zone with poor soil, its neighboring area and the flemish lowlands, the size of mansus was some 20ha. Within the same estate there was to the highest degree threefold difference in the average size of mansus among the domains. Generally, it appears that the regional differences in the size of mansus resulted from geographical conditions of location such as topographical peculiarities, soil fertility, level of agricultural develop- ment, population density and so on. So to say, while the size of mansus was relatively small in the region of Paris where soil is fertile, therefore agriculture developed earlier and population density was high, the size was great in areas contigous to the Flanders Lowland where civilized center was remote from, accordingly agricultural development retarded and population density was low. The region of Hainault with middle size of mansus between these two regions has also the intermediary characteristics in the conditions of location.
