Saint Bibiana (Viviana Vivian or Vibiana) is a Roman Virgin and Martyr. The earliest mention in an authentic historical authority occurs in the Liber Pontificalis where the biography of Pope Simplicius (468–483) states that this pope consecrated a basilica of the holy martyr Bibiana which contained her body near the ‘palatium Licinianum’ (ed. Duchesne I 249). The Basilica of Santa Bibiana still exists.
