The neofiti () were a group of Italians anusim, also known as crypto-Jews, living in Southern Italy.
In the 1490s, the Spanish Inquisition ruthlessly hunted the neofiti and many were tortured and executed, especially in Sicily.
Today, some descendants of neofiti in Calabria and Apulia have converted back to Judaism and revived their former Jewish congregations.
