The word 'possessio' denotes :
physical control over a thing
The Latin term 'possessio' in Roman law denotes the actual, physical or effective control that a person exercises over a thing, as distinguished from ownership (dominium). It is a factual relationship between the possessor and the object, requiring corpus possessionis, i.e., physical detention. Savigny and Ihering explained possession in terms of this physical control coupled with a mental element (animus). While ownership may exist without possession and vice versa, possessio in its strict sense refers to the corporeal element, i.e., physical control over a thing. Salmond likewise treats possession as the continuing exercise of a claim to the exclusive use of a thing, of which physical control is the most visible ingredient.
