This paper discusses five remarkable syntactic features of the language of Celsus' De medicina: praedicativa, the anaphoric pronoun is, instructive expressions, word order, and complex noun phrases. It is shown that these features should not be explained as 'vulgarisms', but as functional linguistic characteristics that are appropriate to the subject matter of the text and the requirements of scientific and technical exposition.
