Living beings that can be entailed, leased, loaned, bought, or sold, and that are entitled to ration allotments from their “holder,” are accounted with the so-called “three-hand,” or “cattle” system. Classed as “digits,” these entities include livestock, slaves, adopted children, widows, orphans, lower-ranks military members, various laborers, and powered vehicles, equipment, and appliances.*
