The Domesday, or Doomsday Book is named after the Biblical Day of Judgement probably because it represented the final authority for property litigation and tax assessment. Other similar property-and-tax records were often called the Domesday Book of a given locality.
The Domesday Book is useful today as it provides a comprehensive record of land ownership and resources in 11th-century England, offering insights into medieval society, economy, and governance. It serves as a critical historical document for researchers studying feudalism, land use, and demographic changes. Additionally, it aids in understanding historical property rights and contributes to discussions on land management and taxation systems. Its detailed accounts also enrich our knowledge of local history and heritage.
The Doomsday Book (Alternately known as Domesday, or Book of Winchester) is the record of the 1086 CE great survey of England . It was done for William I of England, AKA 'William the Conqueror'. Domesday comes from the Old English word "dom" an accounting or reckoning. So Domesday or Doomsday was a Day of Reckoning. What were they checking for? The survey was an attempt to find out what or how much each landholder had in land and livestock, and evaluate its worth. The Reckoning was how much money each household would owe in taxes. The Dutch have this same use of reckoning in their word for a restaurant bill "Rekenen" a summing up. About the book itself, it was written in Latin spiced up with Old English words for which no Latin equivalent. Copies still exist and it is on-line.

The book became known as the 'Doomsday Book' in an allusion to the Last Judgment as is was 'a strict and terrible last account that cannot be evaded by any skillful subterfuge'. The decisions contained in the book, like those of the Last Judgment were unalterable. Further to this, the document became connected with the Latin phrase Domus Dei or House of God, as the book was kept in a church in Winchester. As a result of this, an alternative spelling of 'Domesdei' became popular for a while. The word Domusdei having similarities to Doomsday.
