Life
Holy Martyr Bassa is remembered on 29 October in the Greek Menaion, together with the martyrs Cyril, Melitene, Menaeus, Menas and Sabbas the general. The Synaxarion of Sirmond (Delehaye) mentions her, with "her company", in a list of saints whose synaxis was held in the church of the Apostle Paul in the Orphanage, on the day of the dedication of the church. Our sources give no further details about her, and her existence and date have not been checked against other sources.
