Gaius Cornelius Gallicanus
Gaius Cornelius Gallicanus was a Roman soldier of the equestrian class whom Vespasian adlected into the Roman senate for his loyalty during the Year of the Four Emperors. Following his'' adlectio'', Gallicanus was governor of Baetica in AD 79/80, and shortly afterwards of Gallia Lugdunensis, succeeding Titus Tettienus Serenus in 80, until 83. He was appointed suffect consul for the ''nundinium'' of September-October 84 with Gaius Tullius Capito Pomponianus Plotius Firmus Gaius, sometimes spelled ''Gajus'', Kaius, Cajus, Caius, was a common Latin praenomen; see Gaius (praenomen).

Ovinius Gallicanus
Ovinius Gallicanus (''floruit'' 293317) was a senator of the Roman Empire, probably the first Christian Roman consul. In 293 or 300 he was the ''curator'' of Teanum Sidicinum. On 4 August 316 he is attested as ''praefectus urbi'' of Rome, as successor to Gaius Vettius Cossinius Rufinus, and kept the office at least until 15 May 317, the year he was also consul, to be succeeded by Septimius Bassus. He might be identified with the Gallicanus who gave some lands to the church of Saints Peter, Paul, and John the Baptist in Ostia.

Flavius Gallicanus
Flavius Gallicanus (''floruit'' 330) was a consul of the Roman Empire in 330. He might be identified with the historical character behind the myth of Saint Gallicanus, who died, according to tradition, in 362, and whose day is June 25. A Gallicanus is known to have donated to the church of the Saints Peter, Paul, and John the Baptist in Ostia lands worth 869 ''solidi'' per year. This Gallicanus should be identified with Flavius or with Ovinius Gallicanus. According to the unreliable ''Acts of Saint Gallicanus'' (in "Acta SS.", June, VII, 31) he was a distinguished general in the Roman–Persian Wars. After his conversion to Christianity he retired to Ostia, founded a hospital and endowed a church built by Constantine I. Under Julian the Apostate he was banished to Egypt, and lived with the hermits in the desert. A small church was built in his honour in the Trastevere of Rome. His relics are at Rome in the church of Sant'Andrea della Valle. The legend of his conversion was dramati ...

Saint Gallicanus
Saint Gallicanus was a Roman martyr in Egypt in 363 AD, during the reign of Julian. According to his "Acta" (in ''Acta SS.'', June, VII, 31), he was a distinguished general in the war against the Persians. He was also consul with Symmachus in 330 and perhaps also once before with Caesonius Bassus in 317. After his conversion to Christianity he retired to Ostia, founded a hospital where he worked with Saint Hilarinus and endowed a church built by Constantine I. Under Julian he was banished to Egypt, and lived with the hermits in the desert. A small church was built in his honour in the Trastevere of Rome. His relics are at Rome in the church of Sant'Andrea della Valle. The legend of his conversion was dramatized in the tenth century by the nun Roswitha Hrotsvitha (c. 935–973) was a secular canoness who wrote drama and Christian poetry under the Ottonian dynasty. She was born in Bad Gandersheim to Saxon nobles and entered Gandersheim Abbey as a canoness. She is consider ...

Gallicanus I
Gallicanus I was the seventh bishop of Embrun. He was represented at the Fourth Council of Arles in 524, assisted in person at that of Carpentras in 527 (where he subscribed to the canons in order of seniority), and attended the Third Council of Vaison The Council of Vaison refers to two separate synods consisting of officials and theologians of the Catholic Church which were held in or near to the Avignon Avignon (, ; ; oc, Avinhon, label=Provençal dialect, Provençal or , ; la, Aven ... in 529.

Gallicanus II
Gallicanus II was the ninth bishop of Embrun. He assisted at the Fourth Council of Orléans in 541 and was represented by a certain Probus at the fifth of Orléans. He is said to have consecrated a church dedicated to the Spanish martyrs Vincent, Orontius and Victor, which was built at Embrun by the previous bishop, Palladius. It is possible, however, that Palladius never existed—he is unknown except from some hagiographical documents of little value—and that Gallicanus II is the same person as Gallicanus I Gallicanus I was the seventh bishop of Embrun. He was represented at the Fourth Council of Arles in 524, assisted in person at that of Carpentras in 527 (where he subscribed to the canons in order of seniority), and attended the Third Council of Va ... and governed the diocese from 518 until 549, and perhaps as late as 554.
