Abstract:		 This chapter considers the document which is the first extant example to have been written in Shetland. Its survival is both surprising and significant. A historical assessment is followed by a translation of the text and it is placed into the broader historical context in which the distant administration of the Norwegian Duke Hakon regulated and controlled events in Shetland. The document opens a window onto the whole complex world of medieval Norwegian land assessments and the skat and rental incomes levied on the basis of such assessments. It also provide evidence for the existence of a building called stofa at the Duke's farm on Papa Stour. It was this reference which led to the excavation on the island in the hope of locating the ducal farm and maybe even this particular building.
