Felicula

Saint Felicula was a virgin of Rome and a martyr, probably of the fourth century, whose relics Pope Gregory the Great gave around 592 to Bishop John of Ravenna. The Roman Martyrology commemorates her on 13 June: at the seventh milestone from the city of Rome, on the Via Ardeatina, Saint Felicula, martyr.

The heavily romanticized Acts of Saints Nereus and Achilleus make her one of the first virgin martyrs and assign her death to about 90, under Domitian. In this legend she was the foster sister of Saint Petronilla and was arrested after Petronilla refused to marry a Roman official. After Petronilla's death she was left for a fortnight in prison without food or drink and was then thrown into a sewer, where she died. Saint Nicomedes recovered her body.
