What is the purpose of the 12 tables back in ancient Rome?

The Twelve Tables were a set of laws inscribed on bronze tablets in ancient Rome around 450 BCE. They served to codify and publicly display the legal rights and responsibilities of Roman citizens, ensuring transparency and fairness in legal proceedings. By establishing a written legal framework, the Twelve Tables aimed to protect the rights of the plebeians against arbitrary decisions by the patrician class. This foundational legal document played a crucial role in the development of Roman law and governance.

Yes, it's well known that the plebeian were the poor and the disenfranchised, but that was only at the beginning of the republic. Over the years the plebs gained their rights and status and wealth and were considered the aristocrats along with the patricians because they were one of the two groups who could trace their ancestry back to the founding of the city.
