Boethus

Saint Boethus the Martyr is commemorated on 18 January (new style, the calendar of the Church of Greece) in the company of the holy Martyr Theodula. The group, which suffered at Anazarbus in Cilicia around the year 304, also includes Helladius the commentariensis, Theodulus, Evagrius and Macarius.

The sources consulted give no details of his life; he is honoured together with the other martyrs who confessed Christ in the persecution at the beginning of the fourth century.
