Life

Saint Domnina the Martyr is commemorated in the Greek synaxarion on 8 January (new style, the calendar of the Church of Greece) as a virgin martyr, beside Neollina. The calendar of the Church of Greece names them with Parthena of Edessa and writes the year 1375 against them, a date we do not adopt, since no other source consulted supports it.

The sources consulted tell nothing of her life and suffering; she is honoured as a martyr of the Lord.
