Summary/Abstract: The examination of the nature of the Roman crimina and their typology was made possibledue to the testimony of the Roman jurisprudence. Claudius Saturninus distinguished between crimesbased mainly on the manner of committing the crime (criminal modus operandi). Finally, however,the formal requirements for accusatio compiled by Paulus and Ulpian, helped to reconstruct thenature of the Roman public law crime. They allowed to make a conclusion about Romans perceivingthe crime in accordance with the formal method of defining it, i.e. as a criminal offence, the elementsof which were described by the law.
