Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that medieval serfs were legally tied to the land?

Yes. A history of Scotland states that serfs were legally tied to the land and could be bought and sold with it, and a Wikipedia article on serfdom notes that villeins regardant were tied to land. Other items only mention serfdom in passing.
