Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to give a greater perspective to the study of an institution that even today presents complex situations because the usucapion or acquisitive prescription works as a kind of consolidation of a right, provided that a possessor has been for a certain period of time. Each legal system establishes the point of equilibrium between the interests confronted in a usucapion case based on certain elements, therefore it is useful to analyze the Roman legal experience as a scientific foundation of this complex institution that constitutes one of the great themes of the law of things.
