The young Christian Plato suffered at Ancyra (Ankara, Turkey) during the Roman Empire's continuing persecution of the Church. His captors tortured him by placing him on hot iron plates that burned his skin. They then tore off strips of his scorched flesh and left him writhing in agony for eight days before beheading him. Plato came to be venerated as a patron saint of captives, for whom he is said to have worked miracles.

We ask you, humbly: don't scroll away.
