Abstract
Since early time of Rome, conubium was the true basis of ius gentium, reports Livy frequently in the first book of his Historiae. Conubium was acknowledged to Latins but explicitly forbidden for people of no patrician origin, in the Corpus of laws of Twelve Tables. Few years after tribune L. Canuleius obtained the conubium for the plebeians. Emperor Claudius (41-54 AD) employed conubium and civitas as praemia militiae at the end of military service, sometimes of forty years and more. His claim was to encourage the veterans of auxilia to remain - with wives and children - along the eastern frontier of the empire.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
