Summary/Abstract: It is quite probable that in ancient times the archaic concept of the legal obligation made it impossible to have legal measures protecting the debtor when the failure to fulfill the obligation was in the creditor's fault. However, the practice to deposit sums of money or items of certain value in temples was common and (although it is arguable in which period it became so) it is likely that its purpose was exactly to give opportunity to the debtor to free himself from the obligation after unsuccessfully having done everything within his powers to fulfill it.
