Not likely for being a Christian as Christianity was the official religion of the Roman Empire by the 5th Century.

You misunderstood me. The bones could be the bones of a persecuted Christian from before the time of Constantine reburied in the church as a relic of a martyred saint and these bones would be a few hundred years older than the church that was probably built to house the bones.
