The lowest part of the farmer class [in the Viking class structure] was the bondi, landholders who did not possess hereditary rights to their land. The bondi often participated in sea-faring expeditions, hunts, and raids in order to supplement their wealth. They held many rights under the law in comparison to the thralls. They could bear witness, produce verdicts, vote on public matters, attend religious ceremonies, and make and bear weapons.
