Cullagium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template:Short description The cullagium (also culagium; Template:Langx, from Latin colligāre, "to collect")[1][2][3] was a tax first imposed in England and France around the pontificate of Urban II (ca. 1042 – 29 July 1099) and thereafter as part of a drive towards clerical celibacy.[4] It was a tax levied by the state on mistresses kept by clergymen.[4] This was ostensibly to discourage the keeping of such mistresses, a practice officially condemned by both Church and state, but became a convenient source of revenue to the latter.[5]
