SALIQUE (or SALIC) LAW. The name of a code of laws, so called from the Salians, a people of Germany who settled in Gaul under their king Pharamond. The most remarkable law of this code, which is sometimes itself called the Salic law, is that which regards succession. De terra vera salica nulla portio haereditatis transit in viulierem, sed hoc virilis sextus aequirit; hoc est, filii in ipsa haereditate succedunt, no part of the salique land passes to females, but the males alone are capable of taking; that is, the sons succeed to the inheritance. This has ever excluded females from the throne of France.
