Torpes of Pisa was a first-century Christian martyr who lived in the Roman era. Born in Pisa, he is identified in some accounts as a gladiator or a member of the imperial bodyguard serving Emperor Nero. Following his conversion to Christianity, he reportedly refused to renounce his faith during a ceremony honoring the goddess Diana. This defiance led to his execution, with traditions suggesting he was decapitated by Nero or by a local prefect in Pisa.
