Quintus Cervidius Scaevola (fl. c.AD 160–180) was a Roman jurist of the equestrian order. Both the Historia Augusta[1] and the Tabula Banasitana attest that Scaevola was a member of Marcus Aurelius's (r. AD 161–180) consilium or inner circle of advisors. Except that Papinian was his student, little more is known of Scaevola's life.
