- Subiect: Studying the evolution of land ownership in the Romanian space in the Middle Ages and identifying those who benefited from such ownership is an important trend in historical research which started in the late nineteenth century and continues to this day. This is a natural undertaking, especially since it is well-known that, in Romanian medieval society, land was the main asset and the boyars represented for a thousand years the dominant social class from which rulers were elected and officials were recruited. Historians have dedicated a large portion of their writings to this general issue, whereas research on the particular factor (as is the case of Neamţ region, for example) was reflected to a lesser extent in historical writings. With a view to the need for syntheses, the monographs and works that would highlight the contribution of the local factor to the development of society are still lacking. This study aims at highlighting the local factor in the general evolution of the Romanian medieval society in general and of the Moldavian medieval society in particular. Studying the evolution of land ownership in villages in Neamţ, we have found that, in the fifteenth century, a series of boyar families have continued to own old villages uninterruptedly (for example, the descendants of the Belcescu, Limbădulce, Urdugaş-Dumbravă families, the descendants of boyars such as Costea al lui Dragoş, Ivan Uscatul, Tatul Herlic etc.), others with some intermittencies, due to seizures made by various rulers (Limbădulce, Porcu, Mic Crai etc.).
