CLAUDIA . A Roman Christian, perhaps wife of Pudens and mother of Linus ( 2 Timothy 4:21 ); but Lightfoot ( Clement , i. 76) shows that this is improbable. The two former names are found in a sepulchral inscription near Rome, and a Claudia was wife of Aulus Pudens, friend of Martial. If these are identified, Claudia was a British lady of high birth; but this is very unlikely.

A. J. Maclean.
