Oliviero Carafa

Italian cardinal and diplomat

1430 CE to 1511 CE

Oliviero Carafa (March 10, 1430 – January 20, 1511), in Latin: Oliverius Carafa, is an Italian cardinal and diplomat of the Renaissance.

Like the majority of his era's prelates, he displays the lavish and conspicuous standard of living that is expected of a prince of the Church.

In his career he sets an example of conscientiousness for his contemporaries and mentors his relative, Giovanni Pietro Carafa, who will become Pope Paul IV.
