Life
Holy Martyr Domninus is commemorated on 16 October (new style) with Leontius, Dometius and Terentius. According to the Greek synaxarion these four martyrs ended their lives in fire, and it keeps no other details about their lives or the place of their suffering.
The name Domninus comes from the Latin dominus, “master”. The Church commemorates him on their feast. The four are honoured on the same day, and their names are kept in the Greek and the Romanian synaxarion as witness to a sacrifice made in common.
