The world’s only surviving document with the original wording of the Constitutio Antoniniana edict is the Papyrus Gissensis 40. It is the oldest in a series of historically significant documents from the history of citizenship, civil rights, and human rights law that include, for example, the Magna Charta (1215), the Golden Bull of Emperor Charles IV (1356), and the French National Assembly’s Original Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (1789).
