Etymology of BARGHMOTE

The word "Barghmote" has an uncertain etymology. It is primarily used to refer to a type of court or assembly in medieval England, where local laws and regulations were discussed and decided upon. However, the exact origin of the word is unclear.

Some sources suggest that "Barghmote" is derived from the Old English word "beorg" or "beorh", meaning hill or mound. It is speculated that such assemblies may have taken place on elevated areas or hills, hence the connection to the word "beorg". This theory suggests that "Barghmote" might translate to "meeting on the hill".

Another theory proposes that "Barghmote" came from the Old English "burh-gemot", which means "town meeting" or "borough assembly".
