Establishment of the Salique Law, redigeed by Clovis in 508
XEE4415611 Establishment of the Salique Law, redigeed by Clovis in 508. It essentially deals with the problems of procedures concerning property and persons, and it deals with inheritance rights for land which can only be passed on to men. It was on this clause, which had nothing to do with the succession to the throne of the Franc Kingdom, that the lawyers used several years later to evade women from the royal succession. Many versions of this law exist, the most recent one was that of Charlemagne in the 9th century. Here it is indicated that a representative of the Nation lays the crown with one hand on a spear or a spade (male warrior attributes) and discards from the other hand the warrior that characterizes women. by Unknown artist, (18th century); Private Collection; (add.info.: Establishment of the Salique Law, redigeed by Clovis in 508.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historical significance of the Establishment of the Salique Law, rediged by Clovis in 508. The law primarily addresses property and personal procedures, particularly focusing on inheritance rights for land that can only be passed down to men. Interestingly, it was this clause that lawyers later exploited to exclude women from royal succession. The artwork depicts a scene where a representative of the Nation lays the crown with one hand on a spear or spade, symbolizing male warrior attributes. In stark contrast, they discard from their other hand a warrior representing women. This visual representation emphasizes how gender played a crucial role in shaping power dynamics during this period. It is worth noting that multiple versions of this law exist, with Charlemagne's version being the most recent in the 9th century. Despite its origins unrelated to succession to the throne of Franc Kingdom, legal professionals cunningly utilized it years later as an excuse to prevent women from ascending to power. This thought-provoking image serves as a reminder of how laws and interpretations can impact societal norms and perpetuate inequality throughout history. It invites viewers to reflect upon gender biases deeply ingrained within legal systems and encourages critical examination of such practices even today.
