A quick definition of indictio:

Indictio is a Latin word that has multiple meanings. In Roman law, it referred to a 15-year period during which property values were reassessed for tax purposes. This cycle was also called indictio. Indictio can also mean a declaration or proclamation, such as a declaration of war. Finally, it can refer to an indictment, which is a formal accusation of a crime.

A more thorough explanation:

Indictio is a Latin term that has three meanings:

  1. In Roman law, it refers to an imperial proclamation that sets a 15-year period for reassessing property values for tax purposes. This period is also known as indictio.
  2. It can also mean a declaration or proclamation, such as a declaration of war (indictio belli).
  3. Lastly, it can refer to an indictment, which is a formal accusation of a crime.

Example 1: In ancient Rome, the emperor would issue an indictio every 15 years to reassess the value of properties for tax purposes. This helped ensure that everyone paid their fair share of taxes.

Example 2: The president's indictio of war against another country caused widespread panic and fear among the citizens.

Example 3: The prosecutor presented the indictio to the grand jury, accusing the defendant of embezzlement.

These examples illustrate the different meanings of indictio. The first example shows how indictio was used in Roman law to ensure fair taxation. The second example demonstrates how indictio can be used to declare war. The third example shows how indictio can be used in a legal context to formally accuse someone of a crime.
