AB The present paper analyzes the permanent structures of feudal power in Castile and the long-term trends in this regard against the backdrop of ecclesiastical lordship. It argues that feudal power developed in local communities as a result of three different sources: the ownership of the land, the public jurisdiction and the private lordship. As of the year 1000, the private lordship became the core of the feudal system: a new area of power based on a law of reciprocity: deals were set up whereby protection was offered in exchange for a number of services, and this in turn led to the establishment of ties based on domination and submission. The strength of every lordship depended on the amount of territorial and jurisdictional rights that it held within its boundaries. In this sense the abadengo proved a powerful system which stemmed from the royal domain (realengo) and from the rights and properties (divisas) applying in the so-called villas de behetría. The seigneurial lordship, which had been the most effective source of revenue from the Xlth to the XIIIth , would undergo a later crisis: one that involved the system as a whole.
