Justinian's code was rediscovered and used by law professors at the first University established in Western Europe, at Bologna in the 11th century.
Roman civil law was gathered together into a consolidated body of the “ Corpus Juris Civilis” in the 6th Century for Emperor Justinian ( AD 483- AD 565). To be "civilised" essentially meant being a townsman, governed by the constitution and legal statutes of that community. The word "civilization" comes from the Latin word for townsman or citizen, civis, and its adjectival form, civilis.
The word civilization (or civilisation) has a variety of meanings related to human society. The ruins of Machu Picchu, "the Lost City of the Incas," has become the most recognizable symbol of the Inca civilization.
