Definition of adrogation

Definition: Adrogation is a term used in Roman law to describe the adoption of a person who is of full capacity (sui juris) into another family. It is also known as arrogation.

Example: When a person who was not under the power of a paterfamilias (head of a Roman household) was adopted, the ceremony was called adrogatio.

Simple Definition

Term: Adrogation

Definition: Adrogation is a type of adoption in ancient Roman law where a person who is already an adult and capable of making their own decisions is adopted into another family. This is different from regular adoption where a child is taken in by a family. Adrogation was only used when the person being adopted was not under the control of a father figure.
