text: 1158 - 1159. In the presence of Patriarch Amalric [of Nesle] of Jerusalem, Arnaldus Sanctissimi Sepulcri prior and his convent give the men [homines] of Mahumeria the vineyards of domnus Hugo de Thorso and domnus Radulfus Parisiac[ensis] on the following conditions. Half of all fruits and a tithe are to be brought to the curia Sancti Sepulcri de Mahumeria or to whatever place in Mahumeria the dispensator Mahumerie ordains. Half the price achieved in any sale [must be surrendered to the Holy Sepulchre]. Sales to the Templars, the Hospitallers, any church, milites or to any that might harm the Holy Sepulchre are forbidden. If there is evidence of bad cultivation the dispensator Mahumerie, together with 4 or 5 witnesses, will give one warning and will then transfer the vineyard to another tenant, paying only half a marcha argenti for it. The planting of vines is allowed only on Holy Sepulchre land. If the canons wish to enlarge their village [villa], they can create mansiones on these vineyards.
