St. Cerbonius (d. ca. 575) was driven from Africa by the Vandals. He moved to Tuscany with St. Regulus whom he eventually succeeded as bishop of Populania. When the Ostrogoths invaded Tuscany, St. Cerbonius was ordered to be killed by wild beasts by King Totila. However, St. Cerbonius was miraculously saved. He spent the last thirty years of his life in exile on Elba.
