Description

Bringing together a team of international experts from different subject areas - including law, history, archaeology and anthropology - this book re-evaluates the traditional narratives surrounding the origins of Roman law before the enactment of the Twelve Tables.

Much is now known about the archaic period, relevant evidence from later periods continues to emerge and new methodologies bring the promise of interpretive inroads.

This book explores whether, in light of recent developments in these fields, the earliest history of Roman law should be reconsidered.

Drawing on the critical axioms of contemporary sociological and anthropological theory, the contributors yield new insights and offer new perspectives on Rome's early legal history.

In doing so, they seek to revise our understanding of Roman legal history as well as to enrich our appreciation of its culture as a whole.
