It was finally adopted and published on September 15, 1567, under the title "Coûtume de Péronne, Montdidier et Roye", here with the addition that Orléans is also included. It was originally an official collection of legislation from Picardy in northern France, which was part of a major wave of reform in the 16th century. It was codified in the 19th century after the Crown had collected and unified the regional rights that had been handed down orally. Significant adjustments were made in the 17th and 18th centuries. ==References====External links== The booklet in a beautiful, easy-to-read manuscript is accessible by a table of contents and an extensive register. – In the front, 2 more small hs. Paper, title with newer inscription (translation), only slightly tanned or spotted, traces of use.
