Nomos Georgikos: Das Byzantinische Landwirtschaftsgesetz. Uberlegungen Zu Inhaltlichen Und Zeitlichen Einordnung. Deutsche UbersetzungPaperback, 30 October 2020

The Nomos Georgikos (Agricultural Law) is the only independent byzantine regulation of land use with quasi-legal character. It influenced until the early modern period the legislation in Byzantium and in many states of Eastern and South-East Europe. The Nomos Georgikos regulates procedures in the fields of agriculture, animal husbandry and forestry. The non-mention of certain plants and animals allows to draw conclusions regarding the greater areas of the laws origins. The text that has came down to us, probably should be dated to the legislative framework of the Ecloga, in the middle of the 8th century.
