Bibiana, not far from the Porta Tiburtina, which he founded (LPD i. 361, n. g; HCh 415). Here, in the sixteenth century, Bosio (Roma Sotterranea, lib. iii. c. 66, p. 585) read an inscription, which began as follows, ' anno domini ... mense Octobris dedicatione(m) huius eccl(esia)e s(an)c(t)or(um) martir(um) Simplicii Faustini et Beatricis ad cimeterium Ursi Pileati iuxta forma(m) Claudii an(te) po(r)ta(m) Taurinam quam primus [sic] Leo papa maxima devotione ... fecit.' This shows that the name had wrongly been transferred to this district in the Middle Ages and by the topographers of the sixteenth century (cf. CIL vi. 3403*). For a statue of a bear wearing a helmet, which is said to have been found by Bernini when rebuilding the church of S. Bibiana, see Baldinucci, Vita del Bernini; Adinolfi, Roma nell' eta di mezzo, i. 282; Arm. 804-806; T. vi
