Gaudiosus of Naples, also known as Gaudiosus the African, was a 5th-century bishop originally from Abitina in Roman Africa. Following the persecutions led by the Vandal king Genseric, he escaped North Africa by boat. He arrived in Naples around 439 AD alongside several other exiled clergy, including the bishop of Carthage. After settling on the city's acropolis, he became a significant religious figure in the region, helping to shape the local monastic and liturgical traditions.
