Democritus, Secundus and Dionysius were martyrs of Synnada in Phrygia, among those of the early times, saints of the undivided Church.
The Syriac Martyrology of 411 commemorates them at the end of July, by the Julian calendar (old style), as among the first martyrs of Synnada. The Latin Hieronymian Martyrology, of the same origin, adds the name of a fourth, Thyrsus. No other account of them survives.
