Tommaso d'Ocra, O.Celest., or Tommaso de Apruntio[1] (born at a date unknown,[2] in a place unknown; died 29 May 1300 in Naples) was an Italian monk and Roman Catholic Cardinal.

  1. ^ He was not a member of the family of the Counts of Apruzio (Apruntio), as some scholars (Brunetti and Palma) conjectured: F. Savio, La contea di Apruzio e i suoi conti (Roma 1905), p. 169.
  2. ^ There was an old tradition that he was born at Teramo in the Abruzzi. Lorenzo Cardella, Memorie delle cardinali della Santa Romana Chiesa II (Roma 1792), p. 42, without himself endorsing the idea.
