North Africa was part of the Roman Empire, though it was considered something of a backwater, far from the centers of imperial power.

Calpornius was then presumably a civilian decurio whose main function in the 4th century seems to have been the raising of taxes of a civilian civitas which included the vicus of Bannavem Taburniae near which he had a substantial estate.
Maintenance of status as both a decurio and diaconus and retention of a uillula may imply that, as some contemporaries had done, Calpornius had entered holy orders as a means of tax-avoidance and the preventation of confiscation himself.
Equally this could mean he was possibly a territorial magnate and may have retired to an estate from his duties - this would make him a very young retiree though, because Patrick's Confession, written many years later suggests that he would have liked to return to see his family who presumably were still alive.
