Lex Poetelia Papiria

The lex Poetelia Papiria was a law passed in Ancient Rome that abolished the contractual form of nexum, or debt bondage.[1] Livy dates the law in 326 BC, during the third consulship of Gaius Poetelius Libo Visolus,[2] but Varro dates the law in 313 BC, during the dictatorship of Poetelius's son.[3]
