Benedictine hermitess. She was born in Ciculum in the Abruzzi region of Italy, and became a recluse in the mountains near Subiaco, in a cave now called Marra Ferogna. Chelidonia received her habit from Cardinal Cuno of Frascati. Her remains are in the church of St. Scholastica in Subiaco, and she is patron of that city.
