[edit] Dab page needed

We have to create a dab page for the word sokha. The word also meant a tax unit (единица податного обложения; not sure how to translate it into English), on the basis of which the state collected a tax called pososhnoye (посошное), a type of land tax. KNewman 18:51, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I think both should be combined. I'm currently translating the land unit one - it was actually for rent payments, and more of a measure of land rather than tax. Sokha (taxation unit). So I'm asking for it to be moved/combined into one. EvokeNZ 23:34, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

As far as i am concerned coxa (as a tool) was in use in whole central & eastern Europe. former type of plough (scratch-plough or sulky plough, lister ???(my english is poor)) was called ralo (in Old Church Slavonic language), in modern bulgarian 'paлo', polish 'radło', rus. 'coxa'.
