Life

Cyriacus and Claudianus were martyrs of Hierapolis in Phrygia, among those of the early times, saints of the undivided Church.

The Syriac Martyrology of 411 commemorates them on 25 October, by the Julian calendar (old style), as among the first martyrs of the city. The Latin Hieronymian Martyrology, of the same origin, names only Claudianus here. No other account of them survives.
