Movement within the medieval Roman Catholic church in response to the breakdown of public order. The movement began at a council at Le Puy in 975, but other, more important councils occured in southern and central France in the late 10th and early 11th centuries. Regional lay and religious authorities attended the councils to ensure God's peace, and they were often joined by large crowds who came to venerate the relics displayed at the meetings. The peace decrees forbade, under pain of excommunication, private warfare or violence against churches, clerics, pilgrims, merchants, women, peasants, and cattle. Participants at the councils took oaths on sacred relics to uphold the decisions made at those councils. The peace was also decreed at the councils of Charoux ( 989), Limoges (994 and 1031), Poitiers ( 1000), and Bourges (1038)
