The '''ius fetiale''' of Antiquity was the set of rules and regulations under which treaties (''foedera'', sg. ''foedus'') were to be handled. It was among the ''iura sacra'', and its overseers and interpreters were the ''[[fetialis|fetiales]]''. It was frequently mentioned alongside its important counterpart, which was used in connection to declarations of war and the conduct thereof, the ''[[ius gentium]]''.

==History of the ius fetiale==

Plutarch, Livy, Cicero, and Dionysius of Halicarnassus, among others, all give interpretations of the institution of the ''fetiales'' at Rome, though some disagree with others. However, none of them give much, if any, insight into the development of the ''ius fetiale'', though it might be asserted that the beginnings of the ''ius fetiale'' at Rome would have come to the city at the same time, and by the same means. On that, then, it might be taken from Livy, who ascribes Ancus Marcius with the institution of the ''fetiales'', that the ''ius fetiale'' came to Rome by the Aequicoli<ref>Livy, ''Ab Urbe Condita'', 1.32.5</ref>; however, that remains uncertain.
