ID | Title | E04899 | 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 31 July. | E05909 | The Latin Life of *Aunarius/Aunacharius (bishop of Auxerre, ob. 605, S02173) presents the saint as an ideal bishop and miracle-worker, both in life and from the grave; Aunacharius was ordained at the tomb of *Martin (ascetic and bishop of Tours, ob. 397, S00050), and buried near that of *Germanus (bishop of Auxerre, ob. c. 448, S00455). Someone needing healing was advised in a dream by *Lupus (probably Lupus of Troyes, S00418), to seek it from Aunacharius.

Written at Auxerre (central Gaul), probably in the early 7th century. |
