medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
The ordinary gloss on the text I cited (c. Ligna) specifies that the wood
might be from a destroyed church. It says the recycled wood is to be used
in religiosis locis, not in cooking or holding up vines.

>> Greetings all,

>> I´d be especially interested in anything on this topic from the late

>> provisions where, among other things, it is ordered that people hunt in
>> the (old) churchyard for bones as if they were hunting for money, in
>> order

>> the new churchyard. I´d also be interested in provisions concerning the
>> possibility that cemeteries might remain where they were even if the

>> such cemeteries, as that would happen in the churchyard of the new
>> church
>> location.)
>> Thanks in advance,
