EXCAMBION, from the Italian Cambio, exchange, is the name given, in Scots law, to the contract by which one piece of land is exchanged for another. The deeds by which this contract is completed, must expressly bear that the lands are mutually given in excambion. In such deeds a real warrandice of the lands excambed is implied, so that in the case of eviction of either party from the land which he has received in excambion, he may recover possession of that which he gave in exchange. This warrandice holds good not only with the contracting parties but also with their heirs and singular successors. This species of contract is resorted to for straightening the marches of contiguous lands.
