| ID | Title | E00277 | Eusebius of Caesarea, in his Ecclesiastical History (6.41-42), quotes a letter in Greek by Dionysios, bishop of Alexandria (Egypt), who, in 250/1, informs Phabios, bishop of Antioch (Syria), about martyrdoms in Egypt during the recent Decian persecution; 27 martyrs are named. Written in Greek in Palestine, 311/325. | E02709 | Greek graffito with an invocation of God, possibly of a martyr *Ioulianos/Julianus. Found in the so-called 'Cave of the Sisters of Mercy' at Bethany/al-Eizariya, to the east of Jerusalem (Roman province of Palaestina I). Probably 5th-6th c. | E03776 | The Church Calendar of Ioane Zosime, compiled in Georgian in the 10th c., based however on 5th-7th c. prototypes from Palestine, commemorates on 20 June *Kyrillos (bishop of Alexandria, ob. 444, S00874), and *Ioulianos/Julianus (martyr of Cilicia, buried at Antioch or in Egypt, S00305) or *Ioulianos (martyr of Egypt, S00155), and *Doulas (martyr of Nicomedia, S00991) or *Doulas/Tatianos (martyr of Zephyrium in Cilicia, S02551). | E05304 | John Moschus, in his Spiritual Meadow (146), recounts how *Ioulianos (probably either the martyr of Antinoopolis, S01341, or the martyr of Cilicia, buried at Antioch or in Egypt, S00305) appeared to the Patriarch Eulogios of Alexandria in the guise of an archdeacon Ioulianos, which made Eulogios realise that the martyr wished him to rebuild his dilapidated church in Alexandria. Written in Greek, probably in Rome, in the 620s or 630s. |
