The Domesday Book is the record of a great survey commissioned by King William I in 1089, detailing ownership of land and farms in most of England for the purpose of levying taxes. It was written in Latin and one of its provisions was that once recorded, there would be no appeal. Thus it came to be known by the English speaking populace as The Domesday Book, on comparison with the Christian notion of the Day of Last Judgement against which there would also be no appeal.
