Publia Fulvia Plautilla (d. 211/212 CE) was the wife of the Roman emperor Caracalla and briefly held the title of Augusta. She was the daughter of the powerful Praetorian Prefect Gaius Fulvius Plautianus, whose influence secured her marriage to Caracalla around 202 CE, likely against his wishes. The marriage was unhappy, and Plautilla’s fortunes declined sharply after her father fell from power and was executed in 205 CE on charges of conspiracy. She was subsequently exiled to the island of Lipari, and after Caracalla became sole emperor, he ordered her execution, bringing an end to her brief and ill-fated prominence.
