Summary/Abstract: The digitization of sources for the study of Roman law and legal historyis a process that began at the end of the 20th century. However, even today it is notcomplete, and its development poses new problems. Particularly significant is thequestion of the correspondence between the manuscript or printed text of a sourceand its digital copy. Difficulties arise with regard to the nature of the sources and especially their physical medium: papyrus, paper, stone, or bronze. This paper discussesthe possibilities offered by modern technology for the satisfactory digital reproductionof sources for research purposes and the problem of whether, in contemporaryepigraphy, papyrology, and codicology, it is possible to replace the originalsource with its digital copy – and under what conditions this is feasible.
