Abstract

This article aims to clarify the issue of the marriage rights of the Latini during the Early Principate, wheter Junian Latins or those who we will call here provincials. We will carry out this task analyzing the issue of the ius conubii and its possible inclusion within the rights or capabilities of Latinitas, but also placing special interest in the promotion mechanisms exclusive of its legal status –namely, the ius Latii and anniculi probatio– and its effects on previous marriages. With this we will try to demonstrate the existence of a common element between both types of Latin people: an integrative will.
