Answer:

A lord who granted land to another lord was called A Fief.

A lord who granted land to another lord was called Vassal.

Explanation:

A fief was the central element of feudalism. It consisted of heritable property or rights granted by an overlord to a vassal who held it in fealty (or "in fee") in return for a form of feudal allegiance and service, usually given by the personal ceremonies of homage and fealty.

Vassal – a lord who was granted land in exchange for service and loyalty to a greater lord. Feudal Contract – the agreement between the king, vassal and lord that offers land in return for protection.
