Consueverunt Romani is Pope Pius V's own 1569 apostolic constitution, the papal document itself in which the pope formally endorsed and promoted the rosary devotion within the Catholic Church. As the primary instrument in the Church's own name, it is the direct and authoritative source for what the papacy itself stated and enacted regarding the rosary at that date. Its limit is that it is a devotional and institutional instrument rather than independent historical scholarship, so it establishes what Pius V ordered and affirmed without itself settling the separate historical question of the rosary's own earlier origins and development, which a secular or academic history of the devotion addresses on different terms.
