In this chapter, the author studies Scheid's reconstruction from the point of view of Roman law. First, he deals with the comparison of noxae deditio in sacred, civil, and international law. Then, he compares Scaevola's regula on impiety with a responsum that the same Scaevola gave in a (civil law) case of unlawful damage. The central question in this contribution is the extent to which pontifical law was connected with civil law. According to Scheid, they had enough in common to allow reconstructing procedures of pontifical law with the help of civil law procedures. This chapter concludes by saying be that there is only a parallel in procedures in a non-technical sense. In the Roman republic, sacred law and civil law were closely linked because they were created and interpreted by the same persons using the same methods.
