Her tomb was later transferred to the cathedral of San Agostino in Rome

Monica was buried in Ostia, which at first seemed almost forgotten. Although her body was moved to a hidden crypt in the church of St. Orea in Ostia in the sixth century. Monica was buried near the tomb of Ostia Orea. Her tomb was later transferred to the cathedral of San Agostino in Rome. Anicius Auchenius Bassus wrote Monica’s epitaph, which is preserved in ancient manuscripts. In the summer of 1945, the actual stone with it was rediscovered in Santa Aurea Church. This piece of debris was found after two boys dug a hole in the yard next to Santa Aurea to place a football pole. However, in the 13th century, the worship of Santa Monica began to spread, and a feast was held on May 4 to commemorate her. In 1430, Pope Martin V ordered that the relics be returned to Rome. It is said that many miracles happened on the way, and the Santa Monica sect was founded. Later, the Archbishop of Rouen, Guillaume d’Estouteville, built a Basilica di Sant’Agostino church in Rome in memory of Augustine, and deposited the relics of Santa Monica in the chapel on the left side of the high altar. However, before the 16th century, the office of Santa Monica did not seem to have a place in the Roman Bible.
