Dometius

Saint Dometius is commemorated in the Greek calendar on 5 November (new style), as one of twelve saints commemorated together with Bishop Castor: Agathangelus, Dometius, Domninus, Dorotheus the priest, Eupsychius, Theotimus, Theophilus, Carterius, Castor the bishop, Silvanus, Timothy and Philotheus.

The synaxarion says of Domninus and those with him that they lived in the time of Emperor Maximian, when Urbanus ruled Palestine (in the year 298). Domninus suffered by being burned alive, and several Christian maidens died with him. Of Castor, who according to unconfirmed information was a bishop, the synaxarion says that he died by fire, and of Agathangelus that he died by the sword. About Dometius the sources consulted contain no particulars of his own.
