What was the code of laws' role in ancient Rome?

A legal code is a book of law. In law codification refers to collecting or restating of laws, usually by subject, in a legal code which is a legal book. The term comes from codex, which is the Latin for bound book. With regard to the Romans, in strict technical terms, it refers to transcribing and collecting of laws which had been previously written on separate papyrus scrolls into codeces (plural of codex) after they invented the codex. The Romans invented the codex towards the end of the first century AD and by the second and third century A.D. it replaced the papyrus scrolls. However, the term is usually used in more generic terms and it also refers to any comprehensive sets of laws, including archaic ones which were inscribed on terracotta tablets (as with the code of Ur-Nammu, the king of the Sumerian city of Ur), stone steles (as with the code of Hammurabi, a Babylonian king) or on Bronze tablets (as with the Law of the Twelve Tables of the Romans).
