After William the Conqueror became William I of England, he ordered a survey to be done of his kingdom. This way the law could determine who held what and what taxes had been liable under Edward the Confessor; the judgment of the Domesday assessors was final. What the book said about who held the material wealth or what it was worth, was the law, and there was no appeal.
