Plural of folkmote; multiple medieval assemblies of common people for governance and legal matters.
Standard English plural of folkmote, the variant spelling of folkmoot, formed by adding -s.
Because we know so little about how individual folkmotes actually functioned, historians have to piece together the system from law codes, charters, and scattered mentions—making the study of medieval democracy frustratingly incomplete.
