Towards a palingenetic study of Bas. 60,3: the contribution of the Byzantine ἴνδικες: part I

The present volume of the Subseciva Groningana is the result of the fruitful cooperation between Groningen and Palermo or, to put it more clearly, between Groningen and Italy. The few scholars who specialize in the field of Byzantine law, are represented in this volume. Their contributions deal with the legal tradition of Byzantium from the days of Justinian (527-565) down to the reign of Constantine IX Monomachus (1042-1055). They clearly demonstrate the importance of Greco-Roman law for the knowledge of Eastern and Western legal history.
