Rare copy of Antwerp customary law. This law remained unwritten until well into the 16th c. Under pressure from the central authorities redactions were made in 1547 and 1570, but the government itself was not in a hurry to homologize these compilations. The first edition appeared in 1582. - Voet, 569 (note); not in Adams.
