Facts
Martyr with Callistaes, and Hermogenes, possibly the three sons of Theodota. They were martyred in Nicaea, Bithynia. Some confusion results from contradictory evidence -- in some traditions they are venerated on August 2, and in other traditions their martyrdom is listed in Syracuse, Italy. In yet other lists the third victim is listed as Callistus.
