    • 1979, Xavier Fàbregas, Tradicions, mites i creences dels catalans:
      L'assentament de la població a partir de l'Alta Edat Mitjana es fa artigant el bosc; cada clariana és el punt de desenvolupament d'una masia, i les terres de conreu cal guanyar-les tot apartant soques d'alzina, de faig i de pi.
      The settlement of the population beginning in the High Middle Ages clears the woods for cultivation; each clearing is the focus of development of a manor and the cultivated lands must be won by pushing aside stumps of holm oaks, beeches, and pines.
