Abercius of Hieropolis was a 2nd-century Christian bishop who lived during the Roman era under Emperor Marcus Aurelius. Traditionally associated with the city of Hieropolis in Phrygia Salutaris, he is recognized as a successor to Papias. He is noted for his extensive travels, including trips to Rome and regions beyond the Euphrates, where he engaged in evangelization. His life and the early Christian practices of his time are primarily known through a significant funerary inscription attributed to him, which is currently preserved in the Vatican Museums.
