Conclusion. 330 $aThis book explores the history of public land tenure records, which first began in colonial Massachusetts as English settlers and Native Americans tried to resolve differing ideas about rights to land in the seventeenth century. In South Australia, a similar method of state certification of land ownership arose in the nineteenth century, through Torrens system title registration - a process that would be widely adopted in British and American colonies as a particularly effective way of guaranteeing absolute ('fee simple') ownership over indigenous peoples' land. This book explores the similarities between these two record systems, highlighting how similar settlement patterns and religious beliefs in both places focused attention on recording land tenure, and illustrating how these record systems encouraged new ways of thinking about rights to and on land. . 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aLaw$xHistory 606 $aImperialism 606 $aWorld history 606 $aLegal History 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History 615 0$aLaw$xHistory. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aWorld history. 615 14$aLegal History. 615 24$aImperialism and Colonialism. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 676 $a333.3 676 $a346.7440438 700 $aRess$b David$0942295 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910427859903321 996 $aDeeds, Titles, and Changing Concepts of Land Rights$94332229 997 $aUNINA
