Holy Martyrs
Chrestus and Pappus
Martyrs of Tomis (Constanța), saints of the undivided Church, commemorated in the Syriac Martyrology of 411.
Life
Chrestus and Pappus were martyrs at Tomis, the Black Sea city on the site of present-day Constanța, saints of the undivided Church.
The Syriac Martyrology of 411, the oldest martyr calendar of the East, commemorates them on 3 April, by the Julian calendar (old style), "in the city of Tomis". The Latin Hieronymian Martyrology names Chrestus in the same city. Tomis lies in present-day Romania, so they are counted among the known martyrs of Dobruja, but no other account of their lives or deaths survives.
