Abstract

The subject of land is conceived as an important component of agricultural economy. For many factors, the Sistan landscape was not exploited favorably, and its residents lived a miserable life as many were forced to leave the country in order to meet their ends. Different kinds of ownerships, namely endowed, public, private and lordship in Sistan are as old as history goes in this region. The understanding of ownership and exploiting system on this land has been a need for researchers working on this field: this study can be viewed as a prominent issue in the history and society of this region. The reason is that most problems the Sistanian have arise from the matter of land. Indeed, is there any factor that contributed to the fate of this area more fundamental than land and its related issues? One can realize the fact that most social, economic, political and cultural issues of this area end up with land by looking into agricultural economy and land- related facts predominating this area! A topic has been made through centuries. This suggests that different kinds of ownership and lands namely endowed, public, private and lordship still matter in this area. This article is in quest of an answer that accounts for the questions of what impact the land has on the social life of Sistanian people. Moreover, what ownerships can be found in this town? In addition, what kind of history they hold in Sistan? And what changes the landholderships brought up in this territory?
