In [ancient Roman](/source/Ancient_Roman) [international law](/source/International_law), a **clarigation** was a loud, clear call or summons made to an enemy to demand satisfaction for some injury received, without which there would be a [declaration of war](/source/Declaration_of_war). Clarigation equates to what the [Ancient Greeks](/source/Ancient_Greeks) called *ανδροληψία* ([androlepsy](/source/Androlepsy)).[1]
