Perfectus was a 9th-century monk and priest from Córdoba who lived during the Umayyad Caliphate. Serving at the basilica of St. Acisclus, he became one of the many Martyrs of Córdoba. His death occurred in 850 following a confrontation regarding religious prophecy. According to historical accounts recorded by Saint Eulogius, his execution marked the beginning of a period of intermittent Christian persecution in Al-Andalus that lasted for over a century.
