Ammonius

Saint Ammonius, a venerable monk, is remembered on 10 January together with Saints Domitian, Bishop of Melitene (died 602), and Marcian, priest and steward of the Great Church. The synaxarion mentions three ascetics named Ammonius: a disciple of Saint Anthony the Great, a disciple of Abba Pambo (who cut off his ear so as not to be made a bishop) and a third, who made cells for newly arrived monks. All lived in the desert and fell asleep in peace, but it is not known which of them is remembered here.
