Also called Taracus, a martyr with Andronicus and Probus during the persecutions of Emperor Diocletian (r. 284-305). Tharachus was born about 239 and was a one-time officer in the Roman army, Probus was a Roman citizen from Pamphilia (modern Turkey), and Andronicus was a young man. They were tried by Numerian Maximus (r. 283-284) and cruelly tortured. Thrown to wild beasts but unharmed, the martyrs were slain by sword in Anazarbus or Tarsus, Cilicia.
