Abstract


The clavari was the principal financial manager of the town councils of the Late Middle Ages, and his account books should constitute the foundations of any study of local finances for that period. Such studies of municipalities of Catalonia and the rest of the Crown of Aragon have indeed taken such an approach.
The present article aims to draw readers'attention to the possibilities of the Llibres de Clavaria in order to reconstruct the council finances, and to show this, it is studied the Llibre de clavaria of the town of Cervera, dated in 1442. An analysis of this book is followed by a comparative examination of other towns and, finally, a detailed study of the institution of the clavaria itself.
