Nambaudus or Anambadus (died 731) was a bishop of Urgell in northern Spain.[1]

Very little is known of his episcopate, except that he is documented in a manuscript dated around 725.[citation needed]

In 731 Nambaudus remained loyal to the Arab governor during the rebellion of the Berber Munussa.[2] He was captured by the rebel chieftain and burned alive in a bonfire in Llivia.
