safe-conduct:
1. fĭdes, ĕi (any formal engagement): often with publica (denoting an engagement on the part of the state): to bring (Jugurtha) to Rome under a s., eum interposita fide publica Romam duceret, Sall. Jug. 32: Cic. (the notion of -conduct lies of course in the duceret, not in the noun).
2. less freq., diplōma, ătis, n. (a state letter of recommendation given to persons travelling; although this was of course usu. given to a friend or person entitled to honour; whereas the fides publica interposita implies that the person so protected is an enemy or by law liable to be arrested): more fully, diploma quo quis tutior sit, Sen. Clem. 1, 10, fin.
