Life
Epiphanius, Donatus and Twelve Companions of Africa were martyrs of North Africa, remembered together on 7 April.
The Roman Martyrology says that in Africa is the birthday, that is, of martyrdom, of the holy martyrs Epiphanius, bishop, Donatus, Rufinus and thirteen others; our record counts fourteen in all. We have no data on the time or circumstances of their martyrdom.
They are saints of the undivided Church, named in the Roman Martyrology; no Orthodox synodal canonization is known. The information is very scant.
