Second Class
ROMAN JUS
We will always refer to the Romans, who created the law in ancient times, they called JUS to what they considered licit, or to what was declared by laws, by magistrates or the custom.
ROMAN INJURIA
They would call INJURIA to everything that was illicit, to what would harm the rest.
DIRECTUM - DIRECTUS
In the V Century of our era, the usage of the word DIRECTUM or DIRECTUS starts to be used. The word means direct, right, straight, correct, to what doesn’t leave its path, to what's correct, or according to the law.
DIRECTUM – DIRECTUS 2
It’s the set of norms that guide the life of men on the right path.
DIRECTUM – DIRECTUS 3
From there is that the term DERECHO starts to be used in the world, abandoning the roman JUS, anyhow, we still use words like jurisdiction, justice, jurisprudence, judicial, etc.
