The Edict of Milan is the name given to a joint proclamation made by the Western emperor [[Constantine I]] and the Eastern emperor [[Licinius]] in February [[313AD]]. The edict established religious toleration for [[Christianity]] and freedom of worship for all Christians throughout the Roman Empire. In addition, both emperors ordered that confiscated property such as church property and Scriptures be returned to the Christians.
Lactantius is the primary source for the edict of Milan.
