Abstract
Abstract In order to frame the legal status of the Vestals in the imperial age regarding the immunities granted to the priestesses of Vesta, the study of the tabulae immunitatis which mentions the Vestal Virgin Maxima Flavia Publicia, who lived in the 3rd century A.D., appears of great interest. The object of analysis will be the two tabulae immunitatisattesting to the granting of immunitas in jugo to Flavia Publicia and the tabula in naucellamarina found in 2007 in Sardinia, in Porto Torres, the ancient Iulian colony of Turris Li-bisonis, in which reference is made to an unprecedented immunity concerning the exemp-tion from the payment of portoria for goods transported from Flavia Publicia, from TurrisLibisonis to Ostia, with a ship owned by her conducted by the slave of the Vestal Maxima,Eudromos, appointed by the priestess to the role of magister navis.
