Life

Bat Emas of Persia is entered in Baring-⁠Gould's list for 9 April as a martyr in Persia around the year 376. The list gives only the name, the title and the year; it says nothing about his life or martyrdom. The source is Baring-⁠Gould, Lives of the Saints (1914 edition). The name looks damaged. He is honoured as a saint of the undivided Church, with no synodal canonization shown in the source.

Commemorated the same day April 9
