Compare slightly earlier angariation n.Compare Middle French, French (now rare) angarier (1381), Italian angariare (a1342). Classical Latin angaria , angariāre , and their derivatives were very common in post-classical Latin in reference to feudal burdens (see detailed articles in J. F. Niermeyer Mediae Latinitatis Lex. Minus (1976)).
