Ad legem Glitiam. Eine rätselhafte lex publica, die fasti der Jahre 21 und 22 n.Chr. und die Gestalt der kognitorischen querela inofficiosi testamenti im 1. Jhdt. n.Chr

The research investigates the contents of the enigmatic lex Glitia, whose comment the Antonine jurist Gaius discussed in a liber singularis of which only a fragment survives (in D. 5,2,4). In this regard, after the examination of this gaian text and of its placement in the economy of the title 5,2 of the Digest, the A. discusses: the prosopography of the gens Glitia of Falerii Novi, the consular Fasti of the first Tiberian age (and therefore the date of the lex Glitia), and finally the elusive evidence relating to judicial bodies dealing out justice extra ordinem with regard to testamenta inofficiosa (eg. the septemviral college). It is concluded that the lex Glitia (21 or 22 AD) would probably have given an initial regulation to the cognitory querela with a structure which, however, is not known in detail.
