The term Kötter is recorded in Germany from the 14th century.

The farmsteads of Kötter were generally sited on the edge of a village or were sub-divisions of an old farm.

Brain networks can be defined at different levels of scale, corresponding to levels of spatial resolution in brain imaging (Kötter, 2007, Sporns, 2010).

Set in a gorgeous garden patio of two 'old houses,' chef/owner Matias Klein Kötter creates a delectable and ever-evolving international menu using regional ingredients.

For dessert, locally-grown cardamom, chocolate and coffee are blended together to make scrumptious crepes, but Kötter won't give up the family secret of the chocolately pastel tlacopac.

Both groups of Kötter - the Erbkötter and Markkötter - were still higher in the social hierarchy than the Heuerling, who were, legally and economically, more dependant on the owners of their cottages.

In the social agricultural hierarchy a Kötter ranked below the full-time farmer or Vollbauer, but above the Büdner, who just owned a house and garden and earned his living as a tradesman, and above the various categories of day labourer (the Inste and the Tagelöhner).
