Sokha was used as unit of taxation for worked land owned by someone else or the State. The term originated when Tatars took rent from the actual plows - the land working tool which used 2-3 horses. At the end of 15th century Novgorod sokha equalled 3 обжs. A Moscow sokha was equal to 10 Novgorod ones and was paid according to the different sizes in various regions of the state. In 1550 a new land-measure unit was established which kept the old name sokha. The name was then used for a certain amount of exploited land. A sokha was divided into quarters.
