Summary:Irrational evidence is part of the legal tradition of the Slavs. Considering the fact that irrational evidence is recognized in almost all relevant Slavic legal history sources, it can be reasonably assumed that this type of evidence has its origins in the deepest antiquity of the Slavic customary law. The aim of the paper is to point out to the specific provisions of Slavic legal sources which regulate this type of evidence, to try to determine the procedure for adducing such evidence, and to discover their role as compared to rational evidence.
