2. _Teloneum_.
    _a_. Pedagium: General word for _tolls_ on streets, roads,
bridges, etc.
      [Greek: alpha]. Pontaticum, for bridges.
      [Greek: beta]. Portaticum, for gates.
      [Greek: gamma]. Platiaticum, for license to sell in market.
      [Greek: delta]. Casaticum, for houses.
      Cf. _Otho_ II., Diploma to Monast. Volturno a. 983, et al. loc.
    _b_. Ripaticum: General word for tolls and taxes for transport by
     water. Cf. Diploma of Berenger II. v. _Ughelli_, Italia Sacra,
   Tom. V. Also a Privilegium of Charlemagne, anno 787. v.
_Ughelli_, Italia Sacra, Tom. V., a. 787. This privilegium
confirms the laws of Liutprand, and shows how much the
inhabitants of Como had to pay in various places in moving salt
down the rivers of Lombardy.
      [Greek: alpha]. Paliscitura,
      [Greek: beta]. Trasitura,
      [Greek: gamma]. Navium ligatura.
      Wharfage dues.
      [Greek: delta]. Portonaticum, harbor dues.
      [Greek: epsilon]. Curatura, probably a tax on certain
merchandise.
      [Greek: zeta]. Passagio, probably same as preceding, but
possibly a tax in favor of those going to the Holy Land.

  8. _Auxilia_ (Occasiones) (dues from vassals):
    _a_. Praestitiones.
    _b_. Dona.
    _c_. Gratuita.
    _d_. Mutua.
    More common after the year 1000 A.D.; but, for an example in the
    year 878, see a Diploma of Lewis II., published by _Puricelli_
  in his Monumenti della Basilica Arnbrosiana.

III. Under head of "_lands owned by Crown or Publicum_":

  1. _Terra Censualis_. Holder of t.c. owed these duties:
    _a_. Glaudaticum,
    _b_. Escaticum,
    _c_. Herbaticum,
    _d_. Datio,
    _e_. Alpaticum,
    _f_. Agrarium.
    Payments for right to pasture cattle and swine on public lands.
      Cf. Chron. da Volturno, a. 972. Chron. Farfensis. Privileg. Lud.
      Pii, et al. loc.
    _g_. Terraticum, amount of produce given for right to cultivate.
    _h_. Pascuarium, payment for sheep pastured on the public land.
    _i_. Boazia, tax levied on every pair of oxen; probably not
      developed before XII. century.

The taxes and so forth mentioned in this list are by no means all that
were levied, but are a fair representation of them. After the year
1000 their feudal character is even more strongly marked.
