Life

Adrias was bishop of Chalcedon and a martyr, a saint of the undivided Church.

The Syriac Martyrology of 411 commemorates him on 13 October, by the Julian calendar (old style), as "bishop at Chalcedon". The Latin Hieronymian Martyrology, of the same origin, gives his name as Adrias or Adrian. No other account of his life or death survives.
