A thanage was an area of land held by a thegn in Anglo-Saxon England.
Thanage can also denote the rank held by such a thegn.
In medieval Scotland David I, an Anglophile, introduced " thanes" to replace the Gaelic "tòiseach". Therefore Scottish thanage denotes the land and duties held and undertaken by the thanes.
