This volume is the first study of the extensive influence of Roman law on the first written law of Iceland, as transmitted through Byzantium. Starting with a chronological presentation of the legislation during the period of the Icelandic free state (930-1262/4), the character of the chieftain Hafliði Másson is presented in detail. Through him influences from Roman law, as well as norms from the Old Testament played a part in the legal codex of Grágás drawn up in 1117/1118. The volume is thus of significance, not just for legal history, but also for German and Byzantine studies.
