Iunius Annius Bassus (fl. 318-331) was an ancient Roman politician. He served as praetorian prefect from 318 to 331, during which time he also held the consulate - many of the laws in the Codex Theodosianus are dedicated to him. His son Junius Bassus was praefectus urbi.
He built the basilica of Junius Bassus on the Esquiline Hill in Rome, famous for its opus sectile decoration.
