Life

Saints Demetrius and Honorius suffered martyrdom at Ostia, the port of Rome, in Italy. The year is not known.

The calendar commemorates them on 21 November, and on 22 December it lists another group of martyrs of Ostia, Demetrius, Honoratus and Florus, which seems to be the same commemoration. They are saints of the undivided Church; the dates are in the New Calendar.

Commemorated the same day November 21
