Pudentiana is a virgin and martyr of the 2nd century who refused to worship the Roman Emperors Marcus Aurelius and Antoninus Pius as deities.

According to her acta and the Martyrology of Reichenau,[2] she was a Roman virgin of the early church, daughter of Saint Pudens, friend of the Apostles, and sister of Praxedes.

Praxedes and Pudentiana, together with Pope Pius I, built a baptistry in the church inside their father's house, and started to baptize pagans.

Pudentiana died at the age of 16, possibly a martyr, and is buried next to her father Pudens, in the Priscilla catacombs on the via Salaria.
