FURTUM, "theft," is one of the four kinds of delicts which were the foundation of obligationes; it is also called "crimen." Moveable things only could be the objects of furtum; for the fraudulent handling (contrectatio fraudulosa) of a thing was furtum, and contrectatio is defined to be "loco movere.

A common punishment for theft in primitive cultures was to cut off the arm or fingers of the thief. Magical effigies were used as protection against theft, but they could also be neutralized by more powerful magic! There was also religious magical thinking that people would be punished after death.

In the Sumerian culture 5200 years ago, there were laws regulating specific punishments for theft. For theft of property in temples or the royal palace, the punishment was death. The same applied to those who sold or acquired stolen goods. And even for buyers who could not prove that they had purchased the goods legally. A person caught breaking into someone’s house could be killed on the spot.

Ancient Egypt also had laws and courts to deal with thieves. Those convicted were subject to corporal punishment, such as mutilation, flogging, penal servitude or death by staking.

In 5th-century BC Greece, thieves were called kleptai (the root of kleptomaniac), and in the worst case could be sentenced to death for their deeds. In the Roman Empire, too, stealing could be punishable by death, but if the thief was not killed when caught in the act, he could instead be sentenced to reimburse the victim, often four or five times the value of the stolen goods.

The Himalaya mountain range is the highest in the world as it consists of several high peaks including the highest mountain in the world, Everest. Passing through India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Bhutan and Nepal, these range covers a distance of 2,400 km.

As mentioned before, the highest point of the range is Mount Everest which is about 8,848m. The Himalayas are still growing because the same force that caused them to form ( collision between Indian and Eurasian Plates) is still in effect today.
