The village community : with special reference to the origin and form of its survivals in Britain . ncarved out of the older village community as land came tobe held under feudal tenures This process might well havebrought about the imprint of ownership by a lord at the sametime as it transferred the only known system of agriculturaleconomy then obtaining, namely, that developed under theolder village community. The intermixture of manorial lands,therefore, would be the natural outcome of an original inter-mixed tribal ownership in the hundred, and thus manors musthave been a late derivative institution from the village com-munity, and not a primary institution from which the villagecommunity evolved. This is borne out by an extremelysuggestive parallel between the intermixture of lands belongingto different manors and the intermixture of parish lands withinone township.
