Life
Saint Flavian of Montefiascone, called in the calendars Flavian of Rome, was a high official of Rome, a deputy-prefect, who suffered for Christ around 304, in the time of Diocletian. The calendars say that he was martyred at Civitavecchia in Italy; he is also honoured at Montefiascone.
No other details of his life survive. He is not to be confused with Flavian, the husband of Dafrosa and father of Saint Bibiana, a former prefect of Rome, commemorated on 22 December.
He is a saint of the undivided Church, commemorated on 28 January (new style).
