Antejuramentum Totally Explained

Everything about Antejuramentum totally explained

Antejuramentum, and præjuramentum, historically called juramentum calumniæ (literally, "oath to accuse falsely"), is an oath which both the accuser and accused were obliged to make before any trial or purgation. The accuser was to swear that he'd prosecute the criminal, and the accused was to make oath on the very day that he was to undergo the ordeal, that he was innocent of the claims of which he was charged. If the accuser failed, the criminal was discharged. If the accused failed, he was intended to be guilty, and wasn't to be admitted to purge himself by the ordeal (see: combat, duel, etc).
