Oliviero Carafa (10 March 1430 – 20 January 1511), in Latin: Oliverius Carafa, was an Italian cardinal and diplomat of the Renaissance.
Like the majority of his era's prelates, he displayed the lavish and conspicuous standard of living that was expected of a prince of the Church.
In his career he set an example of conscientiousness for his contemporaries and mentored his relative, Giovanni Pietro Carafa, who was also "Cardinal Carafa" from 1536 to 1555, when he became Pope Paul IV.
