- Liber Pontificalis (Paveboken) er en samling pavebiografier fra apostelen Peter til Pius II. Det er nå allment anerkjent at den eldste delen er fra begynnelsen av 400-tallet tallet, senere utvidet og ajourført. Når det gjelder de første århundrene, stoler den på Den liberianske katalog. Mens mye av materialet, spesielt i den eldste delen, er apokryft, er verket hovedsakelig basert på verdifulle kilder, og selv om det ofte er tendensiøst, er det uunnværlig for pavedømmets historie. Den nåværende utgaven ble gitt ut av L. Duchesne i Paris i 1886-92.
