Crispina was a wealthy noblewoman and virgin martyr who lived in Roman Africa during the early 4th century. Born in Thagora, she was eventually brought before the proconsul Annius Anullinus during the Diocletian persecution. Despite being a mother with children, she refused to sacrifice to the Roman gods, choosing instead to remain faithful to a single deity. She was executed by beheading in Theveste in 304, demonstrating great courage in the face of public mockery and the threat of death.
