The correct answer is C) Christian influence.

Byzantine law was essentially a continuation of Roman law with Christian influence.

The Byzantine law was an effective system that was the product of the ideas of emperor Justinian I with the influence of the important Roman law concepts developed during the Roman Republic times. Furthermore, during Medieval times, the Byzantine law also received the western influence that is reflected n the Ecloga, the code of laws issued by Leo III and was written in Latin.
