Specific classical sources document the legal abolition of the Roman paternal right to execute family members
Is it true that specific classical sources document the legal abolition of the Roman paternal right to execute family members?
Yes. Specific classical sources and historical analyses document the evolution and eventual legal limitation of the Roman paternal power regarding family members. Legal historical studies show that the absolute right of the paterfamilias underwent substantial statutory and institutional changes over time.
