Havage

/ˈhæv.ɪdʒ/ noun

Definition

An archaic legal or feudal term, possibly referring to a tax, toll, or right of seizure; exact historical meaning is uncertain.

Etymology

Likely derived from Middle English have or hav-, possibly related to concepts of possession or seizure in feudal contexts, though historical documentation is sparse.

Kelly Says

Havage is so obscure that even medieval historians aren't entirely sure what it meant—it appears in old legal documents but nobody kept good records of what people actually charged!
