LIV. The Slain Grafio.

Оглавление

1. If anyone kills a grafio{26} he shall pay 24,000 denarii, which make 600 solidi.

2. If anyone kills a sacebaro,{27} or an obgrafio who is a king’s slave, he shall pay 12,000 denarii, which make 300 solidi.

{26} For the position of the grafio, see introduction. His wergeld is seen to be the same as that of the freeman in the king’s service, and may indeed be regarded as a special instance of the general case of a man employed in the royal service.

{27} The sacebaro and the obgrafio are apparently subordinate officials of the grafio. They were probably not infrequently unfree persons, as they are here.
