The
Medieval legal history page, in particular, provides links to primary sources
in Roman, English, Germanic, Jewish, and Islamic law, among others. From the
page devoted to the law of the Salian Franks, for instance, one learns that “if
any person have wished to strike another with a poisoned arrow, and the arrow
have glanced aside, and it shall be proved on him: he shall be sentenced to
2,500 denars, which make 63 shillings.”
