Either Amendments I-VIII or Amendments I-X, depending on your perspective, constitute the Bill of Rights to the United States Constitution. However, many clauses from among all seven Articles of the Constitution and from among all 27 Amendments to the Constitution have been intepreted by the Supreme Court of the United States to describe and confer civil rights on individuals subject to its provisions. Most notable among Amendments later than Amendments I-X are Amendments XIII, XIV and XV (the "Civil War Amendments").
