Dalisi[1] (大理寺; variously interpreted as the Court of Judicature and Revision,[2] the Court of Judicial Review,[3] and the Office of Justice[4]) was the central government's judicial body in ancient China responsible for handling criminal cases.[5][6] It was also referred to as Jisi (棘寺) because interrogations of criminals sometimes took place under thorn trees.[7] Ancient Vietnam followed ancient China's precedent and also established a similar institution.
