| ID | Title | E01052 | The Depositio Martirum, a list of burials of martyrs (primarily of Rome), gives both the day of the year and the place of their burial; from the so-called Chronography of 354, compiled in Latin in Rome, c. 354. | E03229 | The Latin Acts of *Sylvester (bishop of Rome, 00397) narrate episodes of the life of Sylvester, in particular highlighting his role in the conversion and baptism of the emperor Constantine. Written in a number of versions, the earliest by the 5th c. Later translated into Greek, Syriac and Armenian. | E04867 | The 6th/7th c. recension of the Latin Martyrologium Hieronymianum, as transmitted in 8th c. manuscripts, records the feasts of a number of saints on 30 June. | E04927 | The 6th/7th c. recension of the Latin Martyrologium Hieronymianum, as transmitted in 8th c. manuscripts, records the feasts of a number of saints on 22 August. | E05606 | Bede, in his Martyrology, records the feast on 22 August of *Timotheus (martyr of Rome, buried on the via Ostiensis, S00330), whom *Silvester (bishop of Rome, ob. 336, S00397) received as a guest, and who was buried next to *Paul (the Apostle, S00008). Written in Latin at Wearmouth-Jarrow (north-east Britain), 725/731. | E06989 | The De Locis Sanctis, a guide to the graves of the martyrs around Rome, lists those on the via Ostiensis, south-west of the city. Written in Latin in Rome, 642/683. | E07180 | The so-called Barbarus Scaligeri, a Latin translation of a lost Greek chronography dating from the 6th c., refers to the martyrdom of *Timotheus (bishop supposedly martyred at Carthage, S02875), in the year 304. This is probably an error for *Timotheus (martyr of Rome, buried on the via Ostiensis, S00330). | E07894 | The Itinerarium Malmesburiense, a guide to saints' graves around and within Rome, lists those outside the porta Ostiensis (now called saint Paul's gate) on the via Ostiensis, south-west of the city.
