Fors De Béarn
The Fors de Bearn, or fueros of Béarn, are a series of legal texts (privileges, rulings, judicial sentences, decrees, formularies) compiled over centuries (mostly the eleventh to thirteenth) in the Viscounty of Béarn. Together they formed the constitution of Béarn at the time of their first known complete version in the fifteenth century. ''For'' is a Gascon word derived from the Latin ''forum'', specifically from the '' Forum Iudicium'', which was the law of the Visigoths. The first of the ''fors'' was a charter promulgated around 1080 by Centule V for the repopulation of the ancient town of Iluro ( Oloron). This was the seed of the future For de Oloron, which granted the city a commune. In 1102, Gaston IV granted a privilege to his capital of Morlaas, the nucleus of a similar future For de Morlaas. Finally, in 1188, Gaston VI promulgated the For General, applicable throughout Béarn. This ''for'' included several dispensations which had accrued in the second ha ...
