The text mentions the death and burial sites of Eutropios and Kleonikos in villages around Amaseia, and miracles occurring there. Presumably written in Pontus (northern Asia Minor), in the 5th c. or later. | E03666 | The Church Calendar of Ioane Zosime, compiled in Georgian in the 10th century, based however on 5th-7th c. prototypes from Jerusalem, commemorates on 2 March Germana (an unidentified saint, possibly a corruption of some other name), Theokritos (also unidentified), and *Eutropios (perhaps the martyr of Pontus, S01152). | E03667 | The Church Calendar of Ioane Zosime, compiled in Georgian in the 10th century, based however on 5th-7th c. prototypes from Jerusalem, commemorates on 3 March*Eutropios and Kleonikos, and *Basiliskos (martyrs of Pontus, S01152 and S00388), *Adrianos and Natalia (martyr of Nicomedia and his pious wife, S01342), *Agapios (probably the martyr of Caesarea of Palestine, S00188), *Gerasimos (anchorite, founder of a monastery in the Judean desert, S01507), and *Porphyrios (bishop of Gaza, ob. 420, S01368). | E03725 | The Church Calendar of Ioane Zosime, compiled in Georgian in the 10th c., based however on 5th-7th c. prototypes from Palestine, commemorates on 30 April *Paul (the Apostle, S00008), *Basiliskos and Eutropios (martyrs of Pontus, S00388 and S01152), *James (the Apostle, son of Zebedee, S00108). | E04625 | The presbyter Chrysippus of Jerusalem, in his Encomium and Miracles of *Theodoros (soldier and martyr of Amaseia and Euchaita, S00480), delivered during a festival in Jerusalem, recounts the martyrdom of the saint, and twelve miracles which present Theodoros primarily as an avenger of theft; most of the stories take place at the saint's shrine, revealing aspects of its life; one miracle tells of a shrine to Theodoros in Constantinople. Written in Greek, probably in Jerusalem, 455/479. | E06901 | Two Greek 'epic' Martyrdoms of *Eutropios and Kleonikos, and *Basiliskos (martyrs of Pontus, S01152, and S00388). Skeleton entry |
