Life
Decius was a martyr in Asia Minor, with other martyrs, a saint of the undivided Church.
The Syriac Martyrology of 411 commemorates him on 16 October, by the Julian calendar (old style), "in Asia, Decius and other martyrs". The Latin Hieronymian Martyrology, of the same origin, counts ten further martyrs with him. The names of the others have not survived; he should not be confused with the emperor Decius.
