Question

Who was the property of the land during the Middle Ages?

villain
vassal
barbarian
serf

Answer 1

The serf was the property of the land during the middle ages.

Answer 2

It could be argued that the "serf" was the "property" of the land during the Middle Ages, since under the feudal system that reigned supreme during this time, serfs (or peasants) had very little rights of their own.
