Note 229 — Chapter VI · DISTRIBUTION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF MOTTE-CASTLES
Reading edition
Neckham, “De Utensilibus,” in Wright’s Volume of Vocabularies, pp. 103, 104. Unfortunately this work of Neckham’s was not written to explain the construction of motte castles, but to furnish his pupils with the Latin names of familiar things; a good deal of it is very obscure now.
