Life
Boniface of Sicilibba is a saint of Roman Africa, who died in 484 according to the archive record and is commemorated on 6 December in the Western calendar (new style). Sicilibba was a town of the Roman province of Africa.
No accounts of his life survive. The same day, 6 December, recalls in the Roman Martyrology the confessors who suffered in Africa under the Arian Vandal king Huneric, among them a Boniface, but our sources do not say that this is the same person. He is venerated in the Western Church as a saint of the undivided Church.
