While dueling outside of the legal system to resolve a dispute has been around in one form or another seemingly as long as there have been humans, trial by combat (determining guilt or innocence with, essentially, a duel sanctioned by the courts) dates back to around the 7th century CE and Germanic law, becoming a relatively common practice in Europe through the 16th century.
