23 hrs confidence:
keeper of the records, or taker of the minutes at the "ting" Explanation: In the good old days governing bodies were "tings" (like "folketinget"), and there was a person appointed to write down everything that happened or was said. This is different from a public registrar, and had nothing to do with recording or registering "deeds", in the sense of property documents. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day3 hrs (2010-06-01 17:46:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "scribe" might be appropriate, as it sounds more like something belonging to that historical period |
