Lucius Neratius Priscus was a Roman senator and jurist active in the late 1st and early 2nd century AD, from Saepinum in Samnium. He served as suffect consul in the nundinium of May to June 97 AD alongside Marcus Annius Verus, and later governed the imperial provinces of Germania Inferior from 98 to 101 AD and Pannonia from 102 to 105 AD. He led the Proculian school of Roman jurists for a time and was a prolific legal author whose writings strongly influenced later jurists. Both the emperor Trajan, who reportedly considered him as a possible successor before choosing Hadrian, and the emperor Hadrian himself relied on him for legal advice.
