Zusammenfassung
Confiscation of property was applied under Roman law to enemies of Rome. However, under Republican law it was initially imposed as an accessory to penalties for specific crimes. It was usually enforced alongside offences punishable with death, although from Sulla’s time it became an additional penalty when a person was sentenced to aqua et igni interdictio.
