The aim of Eva Jakab's proposed research is to explore the dynamics between Roman law and local laws in a new way. The law of the Empire cannot be understood as a homogeneous system that equally applied in all if its provinces. Rather the contrary: local people kept their cultural and legal identity, and their own customary laws.
