Erotiida

Holy Martyr Erotiida, a virgin, was burned by pagans, according to the Byzantine verse synaxaria. The time and place of her martyrdom are not known, and her life has not been preserved.

In South Slavic and Russian calendars her commemoration does not appear. In the Greek Religious and Moral Encyclopedia the virgin Erotiida is identified with the martyr Erotiida of Cappadocia, who suffered together with the Holy Martyr Capitolina, but this is not confirmed by the sources. The Greeks commemorate her on 19 October. Her name is not included in the present calendar of the Russian Church.
