Saint John IV (died 17 December 849), called the Peacemaker and known in Italian as Giovanni d'Acquarola or Giovanni Scriba,[1] succeeded Tiberius as Bishop of Naples from 26 February 842 until his death.

He had the relics of Aspren translated to a chapel in the church of Santa Restituta in Naples.[2] He also assisted Duke Andrew II in negotiating the Pactum Sicardi, an economic treaty, with Sicard, Prince of Benevento.[3]

He is one of the patron saints of Naples and his feast day is 22 June.[4][5]
