<div id="ygrps-yiv-780478584">Servitude is the legal term for a concession of rights.<br/>
Easement is the land over which access is granted to enable the enclave <br/>
owner to reach his property (there are other easements, like <br/>
pipelines/cables underground and the access necessary for those. Thus <br/>
easement is also the access so granted.<br/>
So the creation of an easement in the concrete or abstract form is a type <br/>
of servitude.<br/>
