| ID | Title | E02516 | The Latin Martyrdom of *Urbanus (bishop and confessor/martyr of Rome, S00538) and Companions narrates the trial of Urbanus and his clergy by the urban prefect Almasius, aided by Carpasius; the conversion and martyrdom of the prison-keeper *Anolinus (martyr of Rome, S01547); Urbanus' destruction of a pagan temple; the tortures endured by the main protagonists; the beating and death of *Lucianus (deacon and martyr of Rome, S01548) and his burial in the cemetery of Praetextatus on the via Appia; the death by beheading and burial of Urbanus and his clergy in a crypt in the same place. An additional narrative describes Carpasius' death after being possessed by a demon; the conversion of his wife Marmenia, his daughter Lucinia and all his household; the translation of Urbanus and his companions' bodies to Marmenia's house next to Vespasian's palace, where they are buried in fine tombs and where miracles occur. Written presumably in Rome, at an uncertain date, by the 10th c. at the latest. |
