A tithe paid by peasants is a form of tax, typically amounting to one-tenth of their agricultural produce or income, which was historically given to the Church or local lord. This practice was common in medieval Europe and was intended to support religious institutions and clergy. Tithing could also serve as a means for the ruling class to exert control over the peasant population, reinforcing social hierarchies. The obligation to pay tithes often placed a significant financial burden on peasant families.
