History
Portuguese term or phrase: ....a terra e julgado de Monte Lago..
What does the word julgados mean in this context? Is it legal system?

'Os julgados de Freitas, estruturas advindas das condições geográficas, passariam definitivamente durante a centúria oitocentista para Fafe'.

And
'....a terra e julgado de Monte Lago...'

Thanks in advance for any help.
