Lex Frisionum

The Lex Frisionum (lit. 'Law of the Frisians') is a set of legal documents governing early medieval Frisia. Written in 802, it was recorded in Latin during the reign of Charlemagne when the Frankish conquest of Frisia was completed by the final defeat of the Saxon rebel leader Widukind. The law code covered the region of the Frisians.
