Catald of Taranto (also Cataldus, Cathaluds, Cathaldus, Cat(t)aldo, Cathal; fl.

Cataldus was born in Munster and became the disciple and successor of Carthage in the famous School of Lismore, County Waterford.

Some of the miracles claimed through Catald's intercession include protecting the city against the plague and floods that, apparently, had occurred in neighbouring areas.

When his coffin was opened in the eleventh century, it contained a gold cross left at the time of his burial.

The parish church in Montenero Sabino, province of Rieti, in the region of the Lazio, is dedicated to San Cataldo.
