Arkadius wa Mauretania (alifariki 304 hivi) alikuwa Mkristo wa Caesarea ya Mauretania Caesariensis (leo Cherchell nchini Algeria) aliyeuawa kwa ajili ya imani yake. Inasemekana alihama mji wake ili asilazimishe kuabudu miungu ya Roma, lakini alikamatwa akakatwa vipandevipande. Tangu kale anaheshimiwa na Wakatoliki na Waorthodoksi kama mtakatifu mfiadini. Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 12 Januari. Watakatifu wa Agano la Kale Orodha ya Watakatifu Wakristo Orodha ya Watakatifu wa Afrika Orodha ya Watakatifu Wafransisko Tradition states that he was a prominent citizen of who hid away in the countryside to avoid being forced to worship the Roman gods. However, he was caught and arrested. His legend states that he suffered a grisly death. His limbs were cut off, joint by joint, until all that remained were his trunk and head. According to his legend, as Arcadius looked around at all the pieces of him, hacked off, and lying on the ground, he could still speak, and cried out, "You are happy, my members. Now you really belong to God. You have all been sacrificed to Him."
