She was a Christian saint. this would fit the "famous for religion" category, Hom said "To be clear, this person is dead, and therefore not famous for politics, religion, or military."

It would be funny if this is correct. I was going to jokingly ask if Ötzi had a wife.

Was this woman a citizen of Rome, or the wife, daughter, sister or mother of a citizen or Rome? For the purposes of this question "Rome" includes the Byzantine Empire, but not the Holy Roman Empire, Russian Empire, or any other entity that claimed to be the continuation of the Roman Empire. (and yes, women were considered citizens of Rome, even though they could not vote).
Forgive my ignorance.. I don’t want to waste another question.
Would this include Athens? I wanted to ask about Greece, but from what I understand Athens was conquered by Sulla

I'm not 100% sure if she counts as human. I have considered her as a target, though.

I was about to guess Helen of Troy, but she's not real.

If yes, conditional guess: Pontius Pilate's wife, unnamed in the Bible (don't answer if the condition is "no").
