Martyr with Fusculus, Germanus, Laetus, Mansuetus, and Praesidius, all bishops of northern Africa. They all opposed the closing of churches by King Hunneric of the Vandals, an Arian. After being tortured, these bishops were abandoned in a desert, where they died of exposure. Laetus was burned to death.
