Salic law 萨利克法
(重定向自Lex Salica)
Salic law ( or ; Latin:Lex Salica), or Salian Law, was the ancient Salian Frankish civil law code compiled around 500 CE by the first Frankish King, Clovis. Recorded in Latin and in what may have been the oldest known official usage of Old Dutch, it would remain the basis of Frankish law throughout the early Medieval period, influencing future European legal systems. The best known tenet of the old law is the principle of exclusion of women from inheritance of thrones, fiefs and other property. The Salic laws were arbitrated by a committee appointed and empowered by the King of the Franks. Dozens of manuscripts dating from the 6th to 8th centuries and three emendations as late as the 9th century have survived.
