This is a collection of the forty-seven original statutes passed for the continuity of Roman law in the Burgundian realm. It has been attributed to the last king of the Burgundians, Gondomar. However, this identification is unclear given the composite nature of a document like this. In all likelihood, it is a composition of various Burgundian rulers, and their Latin administrators, attempting to bridge the administrative gap between the collapse of Roman Gaul and their new barbarian administration.
