Rhodian Laws

Legal Definition and Related Resources of Rhodian laws

Meaning of Rhodian laws

A code of maritime laws adopted by the people of Rhodes, who had by their commerce and naval victories obtained the sovereignty of the sea, about nine hundred years before the Christian era. There is reason to suppose this code has not been transmitted to posterity, at least not in a perfect state. A collection of marine constitutions, under the denomination of “Rhodian Laws,” may be seen in Vinnius; but they bear evident marks of a spurious origin. Marsh. Ins. bk. 1, c. 4, p. 15. See “Code.”
