Roman Adoption

Roman Adoption is a legal and social institution in ancient Rome that functioned as a formal method of integrating individuals into new familial lineages, distinguished from other forms of kinship by its deliberate use of state-recognized procedures to transfer a person, typically a male, from one domus to another for purposes of succession, political alliance, or familial continuity.
