Pontius Pilate’s wife (Latin: uxor Pilati; Greek: γυνὴ Πιλάτου gunē Pilātou; fl. 1st century) is unnamed in the New Testament where she appears a single time in the Gospel of Matthew. In later Christian tradition she is known variously as Saint Procula (also spelled Proculla or Procla) Saint Claudia Claudia Procles or Claudia Procula. Christian literature and legends have amplified the brief anecdote about Pilate’s wife in the New Testament.
