Substantial accounts of ducal administrations provide valuable insights into the economic and social life of ducal holdings, especially management methods and the use of their natural resources, including the water, timber, stone, soil, and minerals that were being exploited at the time. These holdings need to be studied not only in terms of their own characteristics but also as various poles of an organized enterprise in the Duchy of Burgundy.
