Flavia Seia Isaurica

Flavia Seia Isaurica (floruit 141) was an Ancient Roman businesswoman.

She was the domina (owner) of six brick clay beds in Campania, of which she owned at least two alone, and employed at least ten foremen, officinatores. She belonged to the more successful in the brick industry at the time and was active from 115 until at least 141. She is regarded as a significant example of a successful Roman businesswoman from her day and has been the subject of research.
