Summary/Abstract: The work examines the inscription of Gentianus on border demarcation (termini positi) between two communities in Pelagonia, Macedonia, which might represent a typical example of iurisdictio in a broader conext . The inscription is analyzed, translated and interpreted through the scope of epigraphy and roman law sources, in the framework of regulation of the status and territorial boundaries. Conclusions are derived regarding the importance of legal epigraphy and the indispensability of interdisciplinary approach of Roman law and classical phillology in acquiring accurate data from the primary sources on local communities in ancient history.
