Summary/Abstract: This article presents the personality and activities of the little-known Publius Iuventius Celsus. By using the biographical research method, it outlines his place in the age of the developed Principate and classical Roman jurisprudence. The aim is to highlight his achievements as a remarkable jurist who left a legacy of significant legal maxims and concepts for the development of jurisprudence in the following centuries and to emphasize his participation in the state administration and the holding of high magistrate positions. Special attention is paid to his tenure in the province of Thrace and the probable reasons for the appointment of Celsus to this office.
