| ID | Title | E00603 | Gregory of Tours, in his Glory of the Martyrs (64), tells of the construction of an impressive church of *Antolianus (martyr of Clermont, S00347) at Clermont (central Gaul) in c. 515; but in the process other holy bodies were disturbed, displeasing the saint; the church developed cracks and eventually collapsed in 571/593, but miraculously without loss of life or damage to its altar and marble columns. Written in Latin in Tours (north-west Gaul), 580/594. | E02239 | Gregory of Tours, in his Histories (1.33, 34 and 35), recounts the stories of several martyrs. He records the following martyrs of Clermont (central Gaul): *Antolianus (S00347), *Liminius (S01193), *Cassius (01157), and *Victorinus (S01194), and their tombs outside Clermont. He describes the martyrdom of *Privatus (bishop and martyr of Javols, S01184) near Mende (southern Gaul), and of *Quirinus (bishop and martyr of Siscia, S00614) at Siscia (Dalmatia). Written in Latin in Tours (north-west Gaul), 575/594. | E04670 | 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 6 February. | E06482 | The Latin Martyrdom of *Praeiectus (bishop and martyr of Clermont, ob. 676, S02425) records the saint's life, martyrdom (alongside his companion *Amarinus, abbot and martyr of Clermont, S03021) and miracles. Written probably at or near Clermont (central Gaul), c. 680/700. |
