Spiritualities
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spiritualities is a term, often used in the Middle Ages, that refers to the income sources of a diocese or other ecclesiastical establishment that came from tithes. It also referred to income that came from other religious sources, such as offerings from church services or ecclesiastical fines.[1]
Under canon law, spiritualities were only allowed to the clergy.
