Caelia was a small Peucetian settlement in Apulia — modern Ceglie del Campo, near Bari — whose autonomous bronze coinage was struck during the period of Roman consolidation across southern Italy. The city retained enough administrative independence to issue its own fractional bronzes well into the second century, though the precise endpoint of that authority remains debated. By the time of the Social War, such local minting privileges had effectively ended.
