Æcerbot ("Field-Remedy") is an Anglo-Saxon charm recorded in the 11th century.1 The charm consists of a partially Christianizedprayer to produce fruitful land and crops. The charm contains references to both Christian and Anglo-Saxon pagan elements, as well as the mention of "Erce", described as "mother of earth",2 which has been the subject of an amount of scholarly commentary and speculation.
