Life
Leo the Confessor was an Italian saint of the 11th century, honored at Cliterno. The sources consulted call him only this and say nothing of his life. The Catholic calendar remembers him on 2 May.
He lived after 1054, so he is not a saint of the undivided Church; the sources show no Orthodox canonization.
